IT BECAME A DESPERATE BATTLE TO SAVE THE WEST.
For forty years Western intelligence agents have known a terrible secret: the Russians have a mole — code-named Talbot — inside the CIA. At first Talbot is suspected of killing European agents. Then a street-smart ex-cop uncovers a storm of espionage and murder on the streets of New York, while in a Long Island suburb a civic demonstration against the Russian mission masks a desperate duel of nerves and wits.
Engineered by Talbot, a shadow world of suspicion and deceit is spilling onto the streets — leading to a new Soviet weapon and a first-strike war plan threatening the foundations of American government.
For the U.S., time is running out. For Talbot, the time is now.

Though this book was written in 1984, before the dissolution of the USSR, it's so exciting that it doesn't seem dated. Filled with spies, moles, double agents, sex, romance, and vivid scenes of torture, it takes Tony Abrams--super-smart, witty ex-cop-soon-to-be lawyer--to unravel the plot and distinguish the heroes from the villains. It's a wonder how the talented Scott Brick manages to keep listeners enthralled for 23 hours. He does it with excellent pacing and voices that are perfect matches for the characters' personalities, and by injecting the action with dramatic flair. There is an engaging thread of humor that runs through the book, and Brick delivers it with perfect timing, never interrupting the flow of the narrative. S.S.R. (c) AudioFile 2007, Portland, Maine
