From the #1 New York Times– and Wall Street
Journal–bestselling author comes the dramatic second
adventure in the brand-new Clandestine Operations series
about the Cold War, the fledgling Central Intelligence
Agency—and a new breed of warrior.
In Top
Secret, W.E.B. Griffin introduced a remarkable new cast
of heroes as they found themselves on the front lines of an
entirely different kind of war. Now, these men and women are
going to find out what they've really gotten themselves
into.
James Cronley thought he had done well—he
didn't know he'd done this well.
His first
successful mission for the about-to-be-official new Central
Intelligence Directorate has drawn all kinds of attention,
some welcome, some not. On the plus side, he's now a
captain; promoted to Chief, DCI, Europe; and in charge of a
top secret spy operation. On the minus side, a lot of people
would like to know about that operation, including not only
the Soviets, but his own Pentagon, as well as a seething J.
Edgar Hoover.
Cronley knows that if just one thing
goes wrong, he's likely to get thrown to the wolves. As if
that weren't enough pressure, complications are springing
up on all sides. He's discovered a surprising alliance
between the former German intelligence chief and, of all
things, the Mossad. A German family that Cronley never knew
he had has suddenly, and suspiciously, emerged. And he's
due for a rendezvous with an undercover agent against the
Soviets known only as Seven K.
It's when he meets
Seven K that he gets the real surprise.
