The Ghost War

The Ghost War is a sequel to The Faithful Spy and is intricately plotted as all good spy stories are. In this one a rogue Chinese general is plotting to undermine the US and humiliate the US. Action takes place in Afghanistan and mainland China leading to a spectacular climax. The series is similar to Vince Flynn’s Mitch Rapp series but the characters are more complex.

Not as good as Berenson's other books!

I'd never heard of Berenson, but his modern spy novels are compelling and taut. Lots of action and smart motivations. Good characters. Don't know how I missed this author all along, but I'm glad I have a number of books to catch up on!
