The Eighth Sister by Robert Dugoni – 5 Stars
Publisher: Thomas & Mercer. Seattle
ISBN: 9781503903036
I didn’t expect both a great
espionage thriller and a brilliant trial story in one book. Now an ex-spy,
Charles Jenkins reactivates with the CIA on an operation to uncover a Russian
who has already killed three of seven American spies that had infiltrated the
Russian government. However, an intelligent FSB officer, Federov, is on to him
and the cat and mouse chase throughout the region lights the stage for the
first half of the book in a never ending display of suspense and action packed
moments. But, just how authorized was his mission? Along comes attorney David
Sloane leading a most impressive case related to the operation. In addition to
Charles and David, all other characters display the highest intelligence and
abilities, making this novel with its many twists highly captivating and
enriching. Everyone operates at peak performance, even the ones you don’t want
to root for. Who wins is for you to learn.
I’d like to supply more details,
but any more would be too much. You need to savor the details and relish the
thrills and twists as they happen -- enjoy the excitement, page by page. Truly
one of the best suspense and thriller novels I have read in awhile.
