At first I had to get used to this book. The writing style, the plot. But once I got the hang of it, I liked it a lot.
Interesting, plausible and (for me) the Russian part was very recognizable.
I liked it that much, that I'll be on the look out for more books by this writer.

A fairly typical espionage story about Russia. The Russian side of things is fairly accurate. It is fast paced but has some good character development. My only complaint is that the almost exclusive use of last names made it confusing at times.
