Synopsis

“Vail is in the mold of Lee Child’s Jack Reacher and Robert Crais’s Joe Pike….This guy has movie written all over him.”
—Chicago Sun-Times “Fans of Sam Spade and Jack Reacher will feel right at home with this new tough guy.”
—Boston Globe “We have a new American hero in Steve Vail.”—Patricia Cornwell Steve Vail, former discarded covert operative and the FBI’s new go-to guy for the toughest jobs, returns in Agent X—the pulse-pounding follow-up to the explosive New York Times bestselling debut thriller by Noah Boyd, The Bricklayer. A former FBI agent himself, author Boyd pulls out all the stops in Agent X—as “the Bricklayer” hunts down an elusive Russian spy in a taut and authentic thriller that rivals the very best of Brad Thor, Vince Flynn, Stephen Hunter, and Robert Ludlum.

A Russian offers the FBI a list of names of Americans giving information to the SVR, or whatever they're calling the KGB these days. Said Russian is recalled to his country, and the FBI has to get the list before the KGB finds out and begins killing those listed. I'll call it a mid-tier book for this......more

Outstanding book -- loved Steve Vail [former FBI Agent and now Chicago Bricklayer] as he figured out the clues given by Calculus to uncover spies in companies and the Government, and the bad guys who were handling them.
