Russian counterintelligence chief Colonel Dominika Egorova has been an asset of the CIA for over seven years. She has also been in a forbidden and tumultuous love affair with her handler Nate Nash, mortally dangerous for them both, but irresistible.

In Washington, a newly installed administration is selecting its cabinet members. Dominika hears whispers of a Russian operation to place a mole in a high intelligence position. If the candidate is confirmed, the Kremlin will have access to the identities of CIA assets in Moscow, including Dominika.

With a plot ripped from tomorrow's headlines,The Kremlin's Candidateis a riveting read and a thrilling conclusion to the trilogy than began withRed SparrowandPalace of Treason.

Recenzii

A provocative and timely novel exploring the notion of Russian influence in the US's corridors of power
Matthews beguilingly blends the fun and sexiness of Ian Fleming with the more procedural, information-rich approach of John le Carre and Frederick Forsyth
The finale to the Red Sparrow Trilogy is bothtimely and timeless; an espionage tale that takes the reader behind and beyond the headlines of Russia's assault on America. If anyone doubts that we are in the midst of Cold War II,The Kremlin's Candidatewill erase those doubts, page by eye-opening page.Matthews's writing is elegant and self-assured, and we know we are in the capable hands of a man who is writing about what he knows and who he knows.Twenty-first-century spy novels don't get any better than this.
Matthews spins a mighty operational web replete with exacting tradecraft.His descriptive precision is breathtaking; the sparring between his vividly realized characters is devilishly clever. Withnail-biting suspense, scorching eroticism, dark wit, lashing contempt for politicians dismissive of intelligence work, and fury over Russia's disinformation campaigns, this is a riveting and knowing dramatization of today's clandestine geopolitical conflicts
A stellar conclusion... races to aheart-poundingand unexpected resolution.
Dominika Egorova, of the Russian Intelligence Service, is one of the most complex and compelling heroines to grace the espionage genre ... Matthews's scene-setting is superb, and he has a fine eye for telling details ...Palace of Treasonshimmers with authenticity
Taut, fast-paced and authentic. AgreatAmerican spy novel
Sublime and sophisticated ... a fast-paced thriller ... as noteworthy for its superior style as for its gripping depiction of a secretive world
A primer in 21st-century spying... terrifically good
The best espionage novel you've ever read
There is much to relish, from its revival of the sexy spy (this time female) to its mischievous portrayal of Putin
As authentic a spy novel as you are ever apt to read, rendered in exciting prose by a master who helped craft the rules by which spying is conducted. A ten-cloak, ten-dagger read
Matthews is the insider's insider. He knows the secrets. And he is also a master storyteller
The world of a spy is unique and claustrophobic, but this bold tale captures its every nuance with expert precision. A tantalizing premise, and a heroine who's an alpha female, forge a solid piece of entertainment that does not disappoint
A sequel that's every bit as good as his début . . . Authentic tradecraft, a complex plot that steadily builds tension, and credible heroes and villains on both sides make this a standout
The tough and talented Egorova is a brilliant creation - her adventures make for a dazzling thrill-filled journey across the globe. Matthews spent 30 years as a CIA agent so this is the real deal. Thrilling, absorbing and brilliantly descriptive ... you won't fail to be won over
Egorova could well turn out to be the greatest ever female character in spy fiction
