Praise for The Ghost Agent

Pulse-pounding... The author's plausible scenario distinguishes this from most spy thrillers

Publishers Weekly

Terrific and relentless suspense and action

Kirkus Reviews

A fast-paced story of international intrigue and espionage ... John Wells is a fine character who will likely propel Berenson's thrillers to success for some time to come

Chicago Sun Times

Berenson, winner of the 2007 Edgar Award for his first novel, The Faithful Spy, proves his debut was no fluke with this stellar sequel... The authenticity Berenson brings to his ripped-from-the-headlines stories makes them seem as vividly real and scary as nonfiction or the nightly news

Booklist

Heart-pumping adventure

USA Today

A genuine talent... the action scenes are strong

Sunday Times

A smart, economically written spy novel

New York Times
