An Agent in Place

Más información sobre el libro

Deep in the vastness of the Pentagon and the bowels of the massive KGB center in Moscow are old cold war warriors who refuse to fade away. Enter Ben Bassett - a novice diplomat newly dispatched to Moscow with a top secret security clearance and the paradoxical status of low level "housekeeper." Soon after his arrival, Bassett meets the fiercely independent, passionate Russian poet, Aida Zavaskaya, and falls under her spell. Together they become pawns in a dreadful plot whose ultimate goal is to return to the terrible past - and whose opening stakes are the life of her child. A prophetic tale of international suspense, An Agent in Place is also a love story, and an intricate novel of human character and moral responsibility.
