Nina's Friends - Paperback

by James Irwin (Author)

Sophisticated, layered, and character-driven, Nina's Friends is a fast-moving international suspense thriller of betrayal, secrets, and greed, for fans of Daniel Silva and John Sandford.

"Sometimes the friends of your friend are your enemies."

Married Russian undercover agents are brutally murdered in their Philadelphia townhouse during the early months of the Ukraine invasion. Was it a botched robbery? Or something far darker connected to the war?

Dragan Markov, a disgraced former agent and the dead woman's lover, refuses to buy either explanation; he believes the killings are connected to the couple's illegal side-hustles. He follows the trail to Denmark, where he contends with a money launderer seeking an exit strategy, a fledgling domestic terrorist, a pansexual outlaw biker, and a beautiful colleague who wants nothing to do with him or his mission.

Time is not on Dragan's side. He'll soon become the scapegoat for the murders... unless whoever is tracking him through the side streets and shadows of Copenhagen kills him first.

This explosive murder mystery is book one of the Tajna Circle series.
