THE NIGHT AGENT - MATTHEW QUIRK KARTONIERT (TB)

To save America from a catastrophic betrayal  an FBI agent must stop a Russian mole in the
White House in this exhilarating political thriller reminiscent of the early novels of John
Grisham and David Baldacci. No one is more surprised than FBI Agent Peter Sutherland when he's
tapped to work in the White House Situation Room. When Peter was a boy  his father was
suspected of selling secrets to the Russians?a breach that cost him his career  his reputation
and eventually his life. Peter knows intimately how one broken rule can have devastating
consequences  and he has always done everything strictly by the book. Nowhere is he more
vigilant than in this room  the sanctum of America's most closely guarded military and
intelligence secrets. His job is monitoring an emergency line for a call that has not?and might
never?come. Until tonight. At 1:05 A.M. the phone rings. A terrified young woman named Rose
tells Peter that two people have just been murdered and that the killer might still be in the
house with her. One of the victims gave her this phone number with urgent instructions: ?Tell
them OSPREY was right. It's happening . . .? The call thrusts Peter into the heart of a
conspiracy years in the making  involving a Russian mole at the highest levels of the US
government. Anyone in the White House could be the traitor. Anyone could be corrupted. To save
the nation  Peter must take the rules into his own hands  question everything  and trust no
one. He plunges into a desperate hunt for the traitor?an odyssey that pits him and Rose against
Russia's most skilled and ruthless operatives and the full force of the FBI itself. With the
fate of the country on the line  Peter and Rose must evade seasoned assassins to find the
shocking truth?and stop the threat from inside before it's too late. The Night Agent marks the
return of the classic conspiracy thriller  a Three Days of the Condor for today's chaotic
world. With incredible twists and heart-stopping action  this electrifying novel pulls back the
curtain on Washington power and confirms Matthew Quirk as a new master of suspense.
