Summary

Bill Hefflin is a man apart—apart from life, apart from his homeland, apart from love

At the start of the 1989 uprising in Romania, CIA analyst Bill Hefflin—a disillusioned Romanian expat—arrives in Bucharest at the insistence of his KGB asset, code-named Boris. As Hefflin becomes embroiled in an uprising that turns into a brutal revolution, nothing is as it seems, including the search for his childhood love, which has taken on mythical proportions.

With the bloody events unfolding at blinding speed, Hefflin realizes the revolution is manipulated by outside forces, including his own CIA and Boris—the puppeteer who seems to be pulling all the strings of Hefflin's life.

The Bourne Identity meets John le Carré's The Spy Who Came In from the Cold.

A great listen

A very insightful and historically detailed account on the fall of the last bastion of Communism in Europe, splashed with a healthy dose of romance and fiction.
Very nicely narrated too. I enjoyed the change in tone Mr Richards gave all the different characters; American, male, female, heroes, villains, French, Romanian, and especially the very dubious Boris. He injected much needed life and nuences to such a complex set of characters.
The story in itself was well written, even if at times, a bit over-written, and over-explained. However, it is an interesting read (or listen) for anyone interested in factual & historical fiction.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
