About this ebook

Max Thorne is a Russian covert operative ... or is he?

Demoted FSB Agent Max Thorne, struggling with a troubled, unknown past and aimless future, accepts a near-impossible assignment: bring a traitor who is hiding in the United States back home to Russia.

Max has never lost any of the high-value detainees he transports, and this mission could prove his allegiance to the agency. But he'd be working in hostile territory, with an untested new team, and his career and life are on the line.

As the Russian team is ambushed while descending on Washington, DC, Max discovers that his fate is inescapably linked to that of the "traitor." Now there is even more at stake … his mysterious past may tie him to the CIA.

With no time to determine whom to trust, will he find the courage to stand between the Russian service and an innocent man? And in doing so, will Max be deemed a traitor himself?

"You want non-stop action? Give it a shot."

Catherine Coulter

★★★★★ "It was excellent!"

★★★★★ "I enjoyed the book immensely."

★★★★★ "Fantastic! ...Bottom line: this is a great job."

★★★★★ "The 1st full novel of Max Thorne is one which keeps your interest all the way thru…I highly recommend this book."

★★★★★ "To say I enjoyed it would be an understatement this is really a fast-paced and masterfully executed thriller."

    This is yet another action packed espionage thriller from a master of the genre. This is the first in the Max Thorne series which introduces us to the Russian FSB agent. I liked this alternative take on spy thrillers as we often only get to see the western agents. The ‘other side’ are always the bad guys which of course they can’t all be. There’s secrets in Max’s past that he knows little about but after a meeting with a CIA agent there are clearly people who do. This book sees Max working with very little information about a target he’s tasked with bringing back to Russia from the USA. As the story progresses we find there’s much more going on than even Max could have imagined. Ethan Jones packs a lot into this story and not wanting to spoil it I won’t say too much. There’s action all the way and some wonderfully ‘over-the-top’ action scenes that I thoroughly loved. Espionage, action, thrills and an entertaining plot all in one book written by an author with great talent and an eye for the genre. What more could you need? Very highly recommended.
