Synopsis

The Thousand-Year Spy opens in 1944 London, where, as Operation OVERLORD looms, the British Secret Service devises an audacious scheme: the false-flag recruitment of a German admiral who secretly is a communist. There isn’t much time. The admiral will be approachable only during the brief window when he travels to neutral Sweden at the head of a Nazi delegation. For the daring gambit to succeed, the British first must borrow from the Americans a linguistically brilliant young analyst, Linnea Thorsell, setting in motion her rigorous preparations, infiltration, and the ultimate showdown in Stockholm. The Thousand-Year Spy serves up a precarious foray into deception that will enthrall fans of John Le Carré and Alan Furst.

Thank you Victory Editing Netgalley co-op for an arc for my honest opinion. The core of the story was really good, but I had a really hard time getting into the story because the first half of the book has too much detail, I feel like there was just a ton of info dumping going on. I understand in ord......more

Goodreads review by Kelly on October 20, 2024

I received an ARC of this Kindle book. I enjoyed the story. Set in WWII, the English need an undercover agent and only American, Linnea, has the required languages of Swedish, German and Russian. Her training kept me interested. But, I was very distracted by the random unknown words. I have a large v......more
