?FOURTH NOVEL THE PERSIAN AVAILABLE TO PRE-ORDER NOW
A daring CIA operation threatens chaos in the Kremlin.
But can Langley trust the Russian at its center?
CIA operatives Sia and Max enter Russia to recruit Vladimir Putin's moneyman. Sia works for a London firm that conceals the wealth of the super-rich. Max's family business in Mexico - a CIA front since the 1960s - is a farm that breeds high-end racehorses. They pose as a couple, and their targets are Vadim, Putin's private banker, and his wife Anna, who is both a banker and an intelligence officer herself...

Rezensionen / Stimmen
'As gripping as its predecessor ... Complex yet satisfyingly vicious, especially so once Max and Sia in turn enter Russia, Moscow X is a tense, all too plausible depiction of the struggle for power within a corrupt regime' - The Times, Book of the Month 'A gripping depiction of the struggle for power within a corrupt regime' - Sunday Times, Best Summer Reads 'The spy thriller has a champion who can peek behind the curtain' The Times 'An informed, gripping tale' - Financial Times, Best Books of 2024 'McCloskey shows all the talents that brought so much acclaim for his debut, Damascus Station, and takes us inside the inner workings of the CIA, where he once worked as an analyst ... It's the cast of layered, complex characters that makes Moscow X such a gripping read - one often leavened with dry, poetic wit' - Adam LeBor, Financial Times 'McCloskey is the most thoroughly convincing spy novelist to have emerged in the last decade' - Mail on Sunday 'Thrilling, propulsive and terrifying ... unputdownably superb' - Simon Sebag Montefiore Praise for Damascus Station:'Simply marvellous storytelling...a stand-out thriller and essential reading for fans of the genre' - Financial Times
'The best spy novel I have ever read' - General David Petraeus, former director of the CIA
'For an authentic representation of what it's like to work in intelligence, look no further than Damascus Station. McCloskey has captured it all: the breathtaking close calls, the hand in glove of tech and ops, the heartbreaking disappointments, the thrill of a hard-won victory' - Alma Katsu, author of Red Widow and former CIA and NSA analyst

Systemvoraussetzungen
Dateiformat: ePUB
Kopierschutz: Wasserzeichen-DRM (Digital Rights Management)
Systemvoraussetzungen:
- Computer (Windows; MacOS X; Linux): Verwenden Sie eine Lese-Software, die das Dateiformat ePUB verarbeiten kann: z.B. Adobe Digital Editions oder FBReader – beide kostenlos (siehe E-Book Hilfe).
- Tablet/Smartphone (Android; iOS): Installieren Sie die App Adobe Digital Editions oder eine andere Leseapp für E-Books, z.B. PocketBook (siehe E-Book Hilfe).
- E-Book-Reader: Bookeen, Kobo, Pocketbook, Sony, Tolino u.v.a.m.
Das Dateiformat ePUB ist sehr gut für Romane und Sachbücher geeignet - also für „fließenden” Text ohne komplexes Layout. Bei E-Readern oder Smartphones passt sich der Zeilen- und Seitenumbruch automatisch den kleinen Displays an.
Mit Wasserzeichen-DRM wird hier ein „weicher” Kopierschutz verwendet. Daher ist technisch zwar alles möglich – sogar eine unzulässige Weitergabe. Aber an sichtbaren und unsichtbaren Stellen wird der Käufer des E-Books als Wasserzeichen hinterlegt, sodass im Falle eines Missbrauchs die Spur zurückverfolgt werden kann.
