While the premise of the story was very good, I felt this was basically a man's book which could have been seriaized in those Men's Magazines they published in the 60's and 70's (and maybe still do). The hero engages in a fight to the death while dealing with a serious injury to himself all the while shepherding two women one of whom is severly compromised with a gun shot wound and a dose of a sedative. It becomes an exercise in suspending disbelief until the end.

The Night Agent is a suspenseful political thriller with non-stop action. Peter Sutherland is a new agent working in the White House, but his career with the FBI has been slow since his father, a convicted Russian spy, left a cloud of distrust over his son. One night, Peter's loyalty to his country is put to the ultimate test when he receives a distressed call for help over the hotline. What follows is a cat-and-mouse game of deadly betrayal and murder. I was a little disappointed at the end but still enjoyed this book immensely.… (more)

Wow, I am happy I received this copy as and ARC. Inside Threat is a captivating thriller that sends the president and his top aides underground, only to locked inside with them. I am a devoted reader, paticulary of this genre. I must say Inside Threat was well written and moved along at a great pace.
