The Reluctant Assassin: A Tony Dantry Novel

A bestselling novel of intrigue, shadowy politics, and shocking surprises that deftly navigates between the chaotic hope and confusion of post-Cold War Moscow and turn-of-the-Millennium Washington. This is the first book in the Tony Dantry series. The action is fast paced, and there’s enough hi-tech gadgetry to satisfy the most demanding fans of techno-thrillers. Each chapter of The Reluctant Assassin pulls the reader deeper into the story as the author builds tension the way a carpenter builds a house—step by well-crafted step. But this brilliantly turned thriller—reminiscent of Ken Follett’s Eye of the Needle—is more than mindless action. The characters are developed, and the reader cares about them. ------------- Masterfully crafted by Richard Scott, The Reluctant Assassin fuses razor-sharp intrigue with a gripping insight into the confusing chaos that exists between the United States and Russia. Having rapidly achieved bestseller status, readers are hailing Scott’s work as “like watching a movie” and “A refreshing approach to the age-old USA vs. USSR story line”. —SBWire The author definitely knows plotting and that makes the book a good read.—Spy Guys and Gals Vyugin and his friends kept me up past 3 a.m. two nights in a row with my first experience reading a book on Kindle. -Peter Hackmeister, Massachusetts
