Description

The basis for the hit Netflix series. A “paranoid, pulse-pounding thriller that could not be more prescient” (Joseph Finder) about one FBI’s agents’ attempt to unravel an international conspiracy that Lee Child calls ‘irresistible.’”

At 1:05 A.M. the phone rings. A terrified young woman named Rose tells FBI Agent Peter Sutherland that two people have just been murdered and that the killer might still be in the house with her. One of the victims gave her this phone number with urgent instructions: “Tell them OSPREY was right. It’s happening...”

 The call thrusts FBI Agent Peter Sutherland into the heart of a conspiracy years in the making, involving a Russian mole at the highest levels of the U.S. government. Anyone in the White House could be the traitor. Anyone could be corrupted. To save the nation, Peter must take the rules into his own hands, question everything, and trust no one.

The Night Agent marks the return of the classic conspiracy thriller, and “drips with the kind of eye for the telling detail that only a canny reporter, detective or spy possesses.” (Forbes) With incredible twists and heart-stopping action, this electrifying novel pulls back the curtain on Washington power and confirms Matthew Quirk as a new master of suspense.

Don't miss Matthew Quirk's twisty new thriller, Inside Threat!

    I would say the plot is waaay better than the Netflix series, but I liked both and there are crazy unexpected plot twists in both. So if you liked the show, definitely read this! It kept me on the edge of my seat even after just watching the Netflix series. I feel like there definitely could be a sequel, but the ending has a nice finality to it.

    FBI Agent Peter Sutherland ex surveillance specialist and now the night agent in the White House put in there by the presidents Chief of Staff Dianne Farr. His father an FBI agent was accused of treason. He committed suicide. Peter is treated as a leper by all of the other agents. One night the phone at his desk rings and someone needs help. Rose Larkin has just barely escaped the home of her aunt and uncle, both counterintelligence agents. The both were brutally murdered and now the murderer is after her.What unfolds is a tale of Peter and Rose’s survival. The instigators of the betrayal the Russians who will stop at nothing to accomplish their goals. Non stop action, betrayal, and acts of bravery on every page!! My highest recommendation!! An excellent read!!
