Resumen del Editor

"Longtime Coonts fans who share his political leanings will best appreciate this outing." --Publishers Weekly

"The story moves along at a brisk pace, with plenty of intrigue, which will please thriller fans." --Booklist

"Since switching publishers a few years back, Coonts has consistently delivered high-powered, conspiracy-laden political thrillers that are perfect for fans of Vince Flynn and Brad Thor." --Real Book Spy

Stephen Coonts’ newest novel The Russia Account pits CIA officer Tommy Carmellini against a murderous, international financial conspiracy that leaves a trail of death and corruption, extending from a small bank in Estonia, to the highest reaches of the Kremlin, to the halls of the Congress, and perhaps even to the CIA itself - putting Admiral Jake Grafton, the head of the CIA, in the cross hairs of an assassin.

Burglar turned CIA warrior Tommy Carmellini has starred in eight previous Coonts’ thrillers, from Liars and Thieves to Coonts’ latest from Regnery, The Armageddon File. Realistic, passionate, in love with life, Tommy struggles in our turbulent age. Critics have labeled him a “hip, modern hero.” With the help of his mentor Jake Grafton, up to now Carmellini has always managed to foil his enemies. Discovering and defeating the powerful forces behind this massive, blood-stained financial conspiracy that threatens the very foundations of the United States government will be his most difficult challenge. Perhaps, he suspects, an impossible one.

great book well written

Fiction that as you listen you hope is really Fiction. was very hard to put down....

A Great Action Listen

Love Tommy and Jake! Ireally appreciate the way that Stephen changed the names to protect the idiotic and guilty.

Scarry in todays happenings

Too close to our headlines. A story written a year or 2 ago that could be true today.

America 2019....In an alternate universe

I love Tommy Carmellini....I hope that this is not the last we see of him. Stephen Coonts paints an interesting possibility of where we could end up as a country if we don't pull our collective heads out of our collective asses. Well written. and a great job by Eric G. Dove.

If you liked the previous novels, you'll like this

I've been a big fan of this series of novels since I read Flight of the Intruder. Actually I got the novel by accident. It came with the video game. I started reading it, and wasn't able to put it down.

Stephen Coonts writes some of the best novels. I hope he continues this series.

great book

was very pleased with book and the narration was tops just great the narrator should do more books
the story was good had interesting parallel s to today's world of events the Jack Grafton series has been top notch and with Tommy as the side kick keeps it very interesting
it's time Mr Coonts to make Grafton President and that would be very interesting just thinking about I'm ready to hear it. Outstanding

Great End to the Characters

If you stop right here, you have done Jake and Tommy perfectly well. I have read and listened to every Jake Grafton and Tommy Carmellini book and this one was the perfect ending. Thanks for an epic series Stephen. Eric, I hope to keep hearing your narrations for decades to come.

The end...

The end of the Jake Grafton and Tommy Carmellini series? It appears very likely. At age 73 it seems that Stephen Coonts wants to end the series.

THE RUSSIA ACCOUNT has strong aspects of both a political thriller and an espionage thriller, but like other two recent novels in the Tommy Carmellini series it is really a political thriller with the espionage aspects supporting the political aspects. The publisher's summary is rather weak, but I'm inclined to simply add that it is a Stephen Coonts novel so a strong plot and fast pace are there as expected. I will add that the novel is about contemporary US politics and it does choose and support a side. The Grafton/Carmellini series of 19 novels covers over 30 years from The Flight of the Intruder in 1986 with Jake Grafton a young Navy pilot to 2019 with Admiral Grafton retiring after many years as CIA Director. I've read most of the books with every one being superb. Eric G Dove has narrated the six most recent novels in the series and he is the voice of Tommy Carmellini.

another home run

great story... sad to hear this is the last of the series... enjoyed the whole library thank you Stephen

favorite author ever!

I have gone through every Jake Grafton and Tommy carmellini book I dread the day that both these characters go into retirement forever.
