Reviews
A New York Times Book Review Editors' Choice One of BookPage 's Most Anticipated Mysteries and Thrillers of 2021 "Katsu, a longtime intelligence analyst for the C.I.A. and N.S.A, writes what she's most professionally familiar with after years in the paranormal and horror noel trenches. The plotting is sophisticated and laced with surprises, but what stands out most is the emotional core of Lyndsey and Theresa's alliance, and whether there is room, in a nest of vipers, for true sisterhood." - The New York Times Book Review "Terrific...Fans of FX's 'The Americans' will recognize a world where professionalism can fall prey to sexism, careerism, and garden-variety klutziness. Duncan's job is a lot 'like juggling knives,' and Katsu makes us care that she doesn't bobble." - The Washington Post " Red Widow is layered with inside knowledge of how CIA bureaucracy works; it is often a bleak workplace, it seems, where loyalty is in short supply and careers can be ended on a whim." - Financial Times "An exhilarating spy thriller." - The Nerd Daily "Katsu succeeds brilliantly here in capturing the ambience of espionage in action. Red Widow is a driving, step-by-step procedural bristling with suspenseful authenticity." - Washington Independent Review of Books "[Alma Katsu] knows her stuff and already has proven that she can write an engaging thriller....The plot never allows you to catch your breath as the wheels keep turning with every new piece of information uncovered, and nothing is as it appears to be." - BookReporter "Katsu's real-life experience and skill at maintaining taught, nail-biting tension make Red Widow a standout espionage thriller." - BookPage (starred review) "This fast-paced spy thriller offers a seemingly realistic look inside the CIA and raises plenty of questions about the ethics of spying. With a smart, plucky heroine; white-knuckle suspense; multiple twists; and a satisfying conclusion, this is a must for espionage fans." - Booklist "Gripping...An intriguing look at the day-to-day office politics and jostling that goes on behind Langley's walls. Best known for her novels of psychological terror, Katsu shows a sure hand at a new genre." - Publishers Weekly "A first-rate thriller. Red Widow provides an intoxicating, insider's view of the CIA, betrayal, revenge, and espionage at the highest levels and the highest stakes." -Robert Dugoni, author of The Last Agent "Superb! Part savvy geopolitical spy thriller in the tradition of John le Carré, part whipsawing investigative procedural, part gripping psychological suspense, Red Widow grabs you in the harrowing opening scene and never lets go--and I don't mean at the last page; this novel stays with you long after you've finished it. Author Katsu brings an incisive and resonant voice to her tale and has populated it with truly distinctive, fully formed characters, including one of the sharpest and most appealing protagonists in recent fiction: Lyndsey Duncan. Did I say superb? Well, consider it said once more." -Jeffery Deaver, author of The Goodbye Man " Red Widow is a spy thriller that shines with authenticity and heart." -Karen Cleveland, author of Need to Know " Red Widow is a novel only Alma Katsu could have written-a gripping story of secrets and loyalties that nails the brutal tradeoffs involved in high-stakes espionage. Tense, smart, and fearless." -Joseph Finder, author of House on Fire, A New York Times Book Review Editors' Choice One of BookPage 's Most Anticipated Mysteries and Thrillers of 2021 "Katsu, a longtime intelligence analyst for the C.I.A. and N.S.A, writes what she's most professionally familiar with after years in the paranormal and horror noel trenches.

But what comes next is something completely different! Katsu drew from her own experience as a former intelligence analyst for the CIA to craft this compelling and suspenseful tale of modern espionage." - BookPage "A first-rate thriller.

Synopsis
"A wicked sharp spy novel...Equal parts Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy and Killing Eve ." -S. A. Cosby, author of Blacktop Wasteland and Razorblade Tears An exhilarating spy thriller written by an intelligence veteran about two women CIA agents whose paths become intertwined around a threat to the Russia Division--one that's coming from inside the agency. Lyndsey Duncan worries her career with the CIA might be over. After lines are crossed with another intelligence agent during an assignment, she is sent home to Washington on administrative leave. So when a former colleague--now Chief of the Russia Division--recruits her for an internal investigation, she jumps at the chance to prove herself. Lyndsey was once a top handler in the Moscow Field Station, where she was known as the human lie detector and praised for recruiting some of the most senior Russian officials. But now, three Russian assets have been exposed--including one of her own--and the CIA is convinced there's a mole in the department. With years of work in question and lives on the line, Lyndsey is thrown back into life at the agency, this time tracing the steps of those closest to her. Meanwhile, fellow agent Theresa Warner can't avoid the spotlight. She is the infamous Red Widow, the wife of a former director killed in the field under mysterious circumstances. With her husband's legacy shadowing her every move, Theresa is a fixture of the Russia Division, and as she and Lyndsey strike up an unusual friendship, her knowledge proves invaluable. But as Lyndsey uncovers a surprising connection to Theresa that could answer all of her questions, she unearths a terrifying web of secrets within the department, if only she is willing to unravel it...., "A wicked sharp spy novel...Equal parts Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy and Killing Eve ." -S.
