About this ebook
In this “Hitchcockian thriller” (The Washington Post), an ordinary man becomes embroiled in a deadly plot with terrifying global implications—from the New York Times bestselling author of The Doorman.
“When it comes to quick-witted, breathless thrillers that trot the globe, [Pavone’s] are top-tier.”—The New York Times
A NEW YORK POST AND ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR
It’s 3:00am. Do you know where your husband is?
Will Rhodes’s life as a travel writer and a new husband look perfect from the outside. But behind this façade, he’s barely solvent, his idealism rapidly giving way to disillusionment, to the increasing worry that he’s living the wrong life, with the wrong person. Then one night in Argentina, a beautiful woman makes him an offer that he can’t resist, then a very different sort of offer that he can’t refuse.
Soon Will’s bad choices and dark secrets take him across Europe, from a Bordeaux chateau to a midnight raid in Paris, from a mega-yacht in the Mediterranean to an isolated cabin perched on the rugged cliffs of Iceland. It quickly becomes clear that nothing about Will’s life was ever ordinary. That the network of deception ensnaring him is part of an immense conspiracy with complex origins in World War II—and that the people closest to him pose the greatest threat of all.
It’s 3:00am. Your husband has just become a spy.
