Title: A fun read, a classic in its class
Review: I wasn't sure what to expect when I started reading the book but was quickly drawn in by the breathtaking pace of the action. A young man ships his American car to Western Europe and travels into the murky heart of Soviet Russia - Moscow, having made a stop at Borodino where strange things start happening. There are minders everywhere. Even in the hotel for the foreigners where he is staying, intrigue is seeping throughout the place. Sadly the U.S. Consulate is unable to prevent his murder, and that's when the pace picks up even more. A sinister school is uncovered where Russians are trained to act as "perfect" Americans so they can infiltrate the U.S. You will be watching your back with the protagonists, anxiously awaiting that Finnair flight out of Moscow, and kissing the ground upon their first safe landing in the West. There was a bit too much violence for my liking but the book is a lot of fun.
