About this listen

Based on the experiences of a real French spy, Jack Beaumont’s first-hand knowledge and experiences make this thriller plausible and frightening as you’re plunged into the very real world of terror, espionage, and danger.

Alec de Payns is an undercover operative in the ultra-elusive French Y Division of the DGSE, a foreign intelligence service equivalent to the CIA or MI6. Codenamed Aguilar, de Payns is one of the division’s most accomplished agents working to neutralize international threats on a daily basis while simultaneously trying to balance his home life as a husband and father. When a routine mission to infiltrate a dangerous terrorist group unexpectedly goes belly up, Alec is faced with the unthinkable: that he may have been betrayed by someone in his close-knit team—and they may be trying to pin the blame on Alec himself.

Back in Paris, Alec is assigned to investigate a secretive biological weapons facility in Pakistan which the DGSE believes to be producing a newly weaponized strain of bacteria, intended for release in France. As Alec works to uncover the facility’s secrets, he must also fight to clear his name and discover who the mole is before it’s too late. It’s not just his reputation that’s at stake—it’s the lives of his wife, two young children, and the entire population of Paris.

I loved the details put into the storyline. it seemed like u were talking about somthing that actually happened.

it's hard for me to listen to this book and understand the names and who was being talked about. maybe because I'm stupid or just don't register french names as well as american names. then each person has all these different names. I get it, it's me.

Fantastic story all around

The plot, the characters and equanimity of the story were top notch. The author was able to keep up suspense without use of fantastical embellishments which made the story seem very realistic. The narration was also outstanding.

Realistic spy thriller!

I loved the story and the realism about the main character and how he operates. Nothing shiny or explosive but a real spy mission.
