After an explosive takedown of a well-placed mole within the CIA, agent Lyndsey Duncan has been tasked with keeping tabs on her newest Russian asset, deadly war criminal Dmitri Tarasenko. She arrives in London fully focused on the assignment at hand, until her MI6 counterpart, Davis Ranford, the very person responsible for ending her last mission overseas after they were caught in a whirlwind affair, personally calls for her. After a suspicious attack on a powerful Russian oligarch's property on Billionaires' Row in the most fashionable neighborhood in London, Davis needs Lyndsey to cozy up to the billionaire's aristocratic British wife, Emily Rotenberg. Lyndsey s job is to obtain any and all information related to Emily's husband, Mikhail Rotenberg, and his relationship with the new Russian president, whom CIA and MI6 believe is responsible for the sudden mysterious disappearance of his predecessor, the Hard Man. Fortunately for Lyndsey, there's little to dissuade Emily from taking in a much-needed confidante. After all, misery needs company. But before Lyndsey can cover much ground with her newfound friend, the CIA unveils a perturbing connection between Mikhail and Russia's geopolitical past, one that could dangerously upend the world order as we know it. As the pressure to turn Emily becomes higher than ever, Lyndsey must walk a fine and ever-changing line to keep the oligarch s fortune from falling into Russian hands and plunging the world into a new, disastrous geopolitical reality. Red London is a nuanced, race-against-the-clock story that at times feels eerily set against today's headlines, a testament to author Alma Katsu's thirty-plus career in national security. It's a rare spy novel written by an insider that feels as prescient as it is page-turning and utterly unforgettable.
