Summary

A former CIA case officer's novel about two embattled spies who go to extraordinary lengths to keep their informants out of harm's way, published as vetted by the agency itself. Mark Ruttenberg may not be fit for the CIA. Early in his tenure with the agency, he learns about a former operative, Bobby Goldstein, and becomes curious about the case that led to his termination. Before he can get to the bottom of what happened, however, he's shipped off to[REDACTED], where he hobnobs with foreign diplomats and informants, who have access to [REDACTED]information and contacts like the powerful General[REDACTED], in the hopes of recruiting them as agents. But, when he falls for the wrong woman, he's quickly sent back to[REDACTED], with nothing to show for his secretive work but a mysterious postcard with an unknown address on it. Who sent the postcard, and where is it supposed to lead him? Could this all be an ops test, with Mark's future hanging in the balance? Soon, he'll have to decide if righting an old wrong is worth taking a terrible and very personal risk. Published with redacted material throughout the novel,An Ordinary Spyis a riveting and dramatic portrait of modern espionage, filled with suspense, intrigue, and betrayal.
