The pulse-pounding sequel to the best-selling, Edgar Award-winning Red Sparrow that The NY Times Publication Review called "terrifically good": Star-crossed spies Dominika Egorova and CIA agent Nate Nash go back in a cat-and-mouse competition to the final. Captain Dominika Egorova of the Russian Intelligence Service (SVR) has returned from the West to Moscow and the guts, the head office of her service. She finds things worse than when she kept. She despises the men she must provide, the oligarchs and crooks and thugs of Putin's Russia. What nobody knows is the fact that Dominika is doing work for the CIA as Washington's most sensitive penetration of SVR and the Kremlin. As she expertly dodges exposure, Dominika deals with a murderously psychotic manager; survives an Iranian assassination look at; escapes a counterintelligence ambush; rescues an arrested agent and exfiltrates him out of Russia; and has a chilling midnight dialogue in her nightgown with President Putin in one of the tsar's palaces. Complicating the potential risks is the actual fact that Dominika is in love with her CIA handler, Nate Nash, and their lust is as dangerous to both of these as committing espionage in Moscow. So when a mole in the SVR finds Dominika's name over a restricted set of sources, this can be a virtual death word. She must face off only against her psycho manager, who's got an eight-inch knife up his sleeve. Just as overly busy, heart and soul pounding, and action crammed as Red Sparrow, Jason Matthews' second novel proves he is "an insider's insider and a masterful storyteller" (Vince Flynn, number-one New York Times best-selling author).
