Beschreibung
Number one New York Times best-selling author Newt Gingrich returns with this rollicking tale of high-stakes international intrigue — the first audiobook in a contemporary series filled with adventure, betrayal, and politics that captures the tensions and divides of America and the world today.
Valerie Mayberry comes from the kind of wealthy family that would be royalty in any other country. Obsessive and compulsive, she’s also the FBI’s counterintelligence expert on domestic terrorism.
Brett Garrett is a dishonorably discharged ex-Navy SEAL coming off a secret opioid addiction. A brusque, fiercely independent operative who refuses to play by the rules, the seasoned pro is now a gun for hire working as a security contractor in Eastern Europe.
When a high-ranking Kremlin official with knowledge of a plan to attack the US must be smuggled out under the nose of a kleptocratic Putin-like Russian president and a ruthless general, Mayberry and Garret are thrown together to exfiltrate him and preempt a deadly poisonous strike.
As these unlikely partners work to protect their human asset, their mission is threatened by domestic politics: leftist protests, Congressional infighting, and a culture riven by hatred.
Collusion raises many of the most significant issues facing America in real life today. Is Russia our ally or our enemy? Are American leftist activists susceptible to influence from aboard? How far will our enemies go to disrupt our politics and weaken the nation? Can we trust the media to differentiate between the good guys and the bad guys?
Newt Gingrich and Pete Earley have entertained and educated people with three previous novels of Washington scandal and foreign interference. From its explosive opening through several twists and turns to its heart-stopping end, Collusion is their most timely and powerful novel yet.

4.1Leser-Rezensionen
- (2/5)Russian threats, activists, the media, enemies disrupting American politics in an effort to weaken our nation --- all of these are part of this action-packed narrative, creepily scary considering how much of it could actually happen. The weaving together of past and present events adds depth to the narrative; the characters are believable, though perhaps somewhat transcendent. The gritty narrative bristles with suspense and tension, keeping readers off-balance as the plot unfolds. Unfortunately, egregious errors such as changing the Washington National Cathedral from Episcopalian to Presbyterian have a tendency to pull readers right out of the story and cause them to wonder what other incorrect portrayals exist within the pages of this novel.
