Box 88 by Charles Cumming checks all the spy boxes for me! I was fully engrossed in the story the whole time and I love when that happens.
Lachlan Kite is a member of an elite black ops unit that encompasses both sides of the Atlantic Ocean. We meet Lachlan 30 years into his career. He is married with a child on the way and is always very cautious when out and about but when he attends the funeral of his lifelong best friend, he falls into a trap and is kidnapped. His wife is also being held hostage and is being used to try to coerce Lachlan into revealing secrets from 30 years ago. We get to hop back and forth from the past to the present as his kidnappers keep threatening him demanding answers. It’s up to him how much of the truth he reveals all the while trying to keep his family alive without giving his captors what they want. Thanks to @penzlerpub for sending us a copy of this book!
