"Matthew Quirk moves into David Baldacci and John Grisham territory with The Night Agent, a paranoid, pulse-pounding thriller that could not be more prescient. If you're wondering where the best of the next generation of suspense talent is headed, look no further." - Joseph Finder

To find a Russian mole in the White House, an FBI agent must question everything. . . and trust no one.

No one is more surprised than FBI Agent Peter Sutherland when he's tapped to work in the White House Situation Room. When Peter was a boy, his father was suspected of selling secrets to the Russians-a breach that cost him his career, his reputation, and eventually his life. Now Peter's job is monitoring an emergency line for a call that has not-and might never-come.

Until tonight.

At 1:05 A.M. the phone rings. A terrified young woman named Rose tells Peter that two people have just been murdered and thatthe 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 Peter 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, a Three Days of the Condor for today's chaotic world. 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.

"Baldacci's debut [Absolute Power] kept me awake half the night. I'm still a fan... I had the same reaction when I picked up The Night Agent... Best to start this at the beginning of a weekend, as you'll be burning the midnight oil 'til you're finished." - Newark Star Ledger

[A] high-stakes, nail-biting political thriller." - TheRealBookSpy.com

Quirk shows us the human cost of living-and dying-on the gray edges of national security." - Joseph Finder

"This is a nonstop, heart-pounding ride in which moral blacks and whites turn gray in "the efficient alignment of power and interests" that is big-time politics. Quirk has another high-powered hit on his hands." - Booklist (starred review) on The Directive

"The Directive does for the Fed what... Aaron Sorkin did for the White House in "The West Wing", and what Beau Willimon is doing with "House of Cards"... Drips with the kind of eye for the telling detail that only a canny reporter, detective or spy possesses." - Forbes

"A plot that twists like a cobra in a sack, a whip-crack pace and engaging characters make The Night Agent a very classy thriller." - Financial Times

"This is David Baldacci territory, but done with a refreshing vigour by... Quirk who is making a name for himself as a thriller writer to watch." - Daily Mail (London)
