About The Swallow (Espionage Thriller Series)
How did the Russians get their president? Democracy? The will of the people? A free and fair election? He took power twenty-six years ago, in a country whose constitution limited the presidency to two consecutive four-year terms. In August 1999, the Russian people barely knew his name. His approval rating was in the single digits. He was a nobody. Then came September. And something happened in Russia. Apartment buildings exploded in the night. Hundreds died in their beds. The country went to war. And almost everyone who asked the wrong questions ended up dead. By the time it was over, the new president’s approval rating was in the eighties. He has never relinquished power. Now the Kremlin is running the same playbook in Washington — and CIA spymaster Roman Adler is running out of time to stop it. The Swallow is the devastating third novel in the series, following The Honeytrap and The Dissonant. Gripping, seductive, and unrelenting, The Swallow is a razor-edged espionage thriller for fans of John le Carré, Daniel Silva, and Lee Child.
