Nora Baron is back! When the CIA helps a defecting Russian actress in Venice, the op turns deadly in this white-knuckle thriller from the bestselling author of Mrs. John Doe—proving once again that, in the words of James Patterson, “Tom Savage knows the mystery novel inside and out.” Galina Rostova, the hot new star of Moscow’s theater scene—and mistress to a powerful Russian general—has reached out to the CIA. In exchange for information vital to U.S.…
Nora Baron is the wife of a CIA agent and she is called to help provide a cover story for Galina Rostova to defect to the U.S. She plays her role as a journalist and her carefully picked team doing a documentary special on Galina as the new star in Moscow’s theatre.
This is the second book in the series. The story is set in Venice, Italy and the author does a wonderful job describing the area. It is written in third person point of view in the past tense. The story moves well, and the characters are well developed. I enjoyed Nora and look forward to more books about her. If you like books with a strong female lead, you will enjoy this one.
