Freshly returned to the U.S., CIA agent Lyndsey Duncan is pulled away from her vacation time for a special mission: two Russian informants have recently disappeared, leading the head of CIA's Russia Division to believe there's a mole in his department, and it's Lyndsey's job to find out who it might be. As she begins her work, Lyndsey soon narrows down her list of suspects, though something just doesn't feel right. As she keeps digging, Lyndsey starts discovering much more than she, or her boss, ever intended.
Spy thrillers aren't really my cup of tea, but this one is a great example of the genre. Which makes sense, as Katsu is a former CIA agent herself. There's a degree of realism in this book that doesn't appear in most spy thrillers, including some loose ends and unknown allegiances. While I appreciated the realism, fans of flashier spy novels might not like that bit as much. A good book though!
