Addictive
I listen to tons of audio books, since I am a) very short sighted and b) travel a lot. Most of my listening I do for entertainment and do not expect much in the way of "deep and meaningful". So this book was a total surprise. An exciting espionage story not full off predictable heroism and clear good and evil camps. if this story would happen, it wold happen like this. The discrepancy between US and European views and attitudes is brilliantly depicted and the narrators do their part bringing this story to life.

Outstanding thriller
Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?
It did, because it moves back and forth between the story of a repentant CIA operative in the 80s and 90s and several young Swedes in 2013 caught up in a deadly hunt to destroy them.
Have you listened to any of Peter Ganim and Elisabeth Rodgers ’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
I haven't, but I have to say that Elizabeth Roger's rendering of male voices is not very convincing.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
There were several, but I won't say so as not to spoil it for other readers.
Any additional comments?
I heartily recommend this book for readers who are interested in contemporary international intrigue.
