Resumen del Editor

The Russians don't just want to influence American elections - they want it all. Former CIA agent John Wells confronts a plot of astonishing audacity as New York Times best-selling author Alex Berenson goes beyond today's headlines to tomorrow's all-too-real threats.

It was supposed to be a terrorist sting. The guns were supposed to be disabled. Then why was there so much blood?

The target was the American Airlines Center, the home of the Dallas Mavericks. The FBI had told Ahmed Shakir that his drug bust would go away if he helped them, and they'd supply all the weaponry, carefully removing the firing pins before the main event. It never occurred to Sami to doubt them, until it was too late.

When John Wells is called to Washington, he's sure it's to investigate the carnage in Dallas, but it isn't. The former CIA director, now president, Vinnie Duto has plenty of people working in Texas. He wants Wells to go to Colombia. An old asset there has information to share - and it will lead Wells to the deadliest mission of his life, an extraordinary confluence of sleeper cells, sniper teams, false flag operations, double agents high in the US government - and a Russian plot to take over the government itself. If it succeeds, what happened in Texas will be only a prelude.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“Smart, prescient, and harrowing…‘The Manchurian Candidate’ for a new generation.” (Providence Journal)

"The fantastic plot, character development and action are insidiously riveting.” (Connecticut Day)

“[T]imely...Berenson’s knowledge of geopolitical issues and government intelligence strategies impresses.” (Publishers Weekly)

I just wish he’d write these faster.

Alex Berenson read by George Guidall what else do you need to know.

This is the smartest, savviest espionage thrillers around.

He’s America’s Le Carré. John Wells our Smiley.

Excellent as always!

Love these books. Big Mitch Rapp fan and these are a great substitute until Mills releases something better than the last one. The Deceivers is more John Wells as detective than counter espionage expert but I think it worked. Guidall was great again.

Berenson at his best

Loved it. Goodall is wonderful as always. A great and timely story. Enjoyed every minute.

Very Good Read!

Very good read! The only thing I hated about this novel was the fact that I have to wait another year to get to what may (or may not) be the end to a thrilling story. Well done Alex!

Alex Berenson and George Guidall never disappoint

Great story line. Want more John Wells. As always George Guidall makes it all come alive like no other!!

Another Great John Wells/Berenson Novel !

Lots of twists and turns to keep up the excitement to the very end.

Fantastic

How could it be better? More Wells more often. Great characters, totally plausible plot line. No assumptions necessary to make it believable. Just a great story, pure and simple.

To make it the best, we have George Guidall. I'd be happy listening to him read paint can labels!

A Great listen!!! On par with Konkoly

I don't remember reading a Berenson Novel before but now I'm hooked. Guidall is a fantastic narrator as always. I definitely recommend this book for those who like espionage, politics, corruption, and action adventures without the boring back stories and romance that typically finds its way into the plot.

The best John Wells yet!!

The best John Wells yet! Loved it! John Wells at his very best and totally plausible!

Another great John Wells Novel

I've read all 12 John Wells novels, dating back to the first book in 2006. They are all excellent, and this is no exception. There are countless allusions to current political/international events in this book, and it's funny sussing them all out. Guidall is amazing, as always.
