A thriller of prophetic proportions–just when you thought it was safe to come out of the bomb shelter…


The Kremlin Conspiracy

Joel Rosenberg’s newest thriller, “The Kremlin Conspiracy”, is so good it’s scary.

“Louisa Sherbatov had just turned six, but she would never turn seven”–the first line that is sure to keep you reading.  A series of apartment bombings in Moscow leads to the rise of Aleksandr Ivanovich Luganov who becomes President of Russia by his own design and seeks to bring Russia back to her former greatness.  His son-in-law, Oleg Kraskin, becomes his senior aide and confidant and later regrets taking his position.

Marcus Ryker joins the Marines after 9/11 and later becomes a respected and decorated member of the Secret Service until a tragic accident causes him to re-evaluate his priorities.  After his departure from the Secret Service, he discovers a plot by the Russian President that, in all likelihood, will lead to nuclear war.

Ryker wrestles with his conscience asking himself “is it okay to assassinate one person to save millions?”.  Think about that…

Rosenberg has a gift–one he has always used wisely.  Although his works are fiction, we should take heed.  Many of the events he has fictionalized have become a reality. His description of the American President in “The Kremlin Conspiracy” is spot-on–something that didn’t come to light until AFTER the book was written.

I never miss a book by Joel Rosenberg. He never disappoints.  Be sure to follow his blog–https://flashtrafficblog.wordpress.com/
