Zusammenfassung “ Red to Black has more in common with the elegantly paced books of John le Carré than it does with Ian Fleming’s James Bond novels. But readers who appreciate a healthy dose of real-world worries in their spy novels won’t complain.” — Richmond Times-Dispatch Gorky Park for the Putin era! Red To Black by Alex Dryden could have been ripped from recent headlines.
