The Kremlin's Candidate

The Kremlin's Candidate by Photographer Jason Matthews

In the final, thrilling installment of the Red Sparrow Trilogy, Russian counterintelligence chief Dominika Egorova and her lover, CIA agent Nate Nash, must find a Russian agent about to be appointed to a very high office in the US government

Jason Matthews's high-powered, seductive third novel, with a narrative ripped from tomorrow's headlines, not only continues Dominika and Nate's deadly entanglements, but also illustrates with terrifying reality how Russian espionage can install spies in the most sensitive places of power.The novel opens with Russian president Vladimir Putin preparing the clandestine assassination of a high-ranking US official.

Dominika, Nate, and their CIA colleagues discover the conspiracy and must uncover the traitor before he or she can reveal that Dominika has been spying for the CIA for years.Any leak, any blunder, will identify her as a CIA asset, resulting in a one-way ticket to a Moscow execution cellar.Along the way, Matthews, a thirty-three-year veteran of the CIA and winner of the Edgar Award for Bess, must unmask

Finally, during a power weekend with Putin's inner circle, the lines of danger meet on the breathtaking billion-dollar presidential palace on the Black Sea. Would Nate sacrifice himself to save Dominika? Is she willing to give up herself to defend Nate? Do they both go down?
