About this listen
A murdered model. A missing girl. A lead no one wants followed.
It’s the late 1990s. An FBI Special Agent is pulled from his post at the U.S. Embassy in Moscow and sent to Athens, Greece on a high-stakes mission. A Russian supermodel has been brutally murder—her closest friend is missing. The agent’s new partner is from Russia’s MVD—a sharp, young female officer with elite training and zero patience for American arrogance. Trust is limited. Time is short. And someone is already working to shut the investigation down.
As the search widens, unexpected allies emerge—analysts, agents, and specialists with their own reasons for getting involved. One thing is clear: this isn’t just another murder. It’s the first step into something deeper—and darker.
Book Two in the explosive FBI thriller series: DIRECTIVE SEVEN.
DIRECTIVE SEVEN is the gripping thriller series, inspired by the real-life experiences of the writer, a former FBI Special Agent, uncovering dangerous truths buried behind borders, bureaucracy, and plausible deniability. When cases are too sensitive, too strange, or too explosive for official channels, they’re handed down from the Director’s office—the seventh floor of the J. Edgar Hoover Building—under a secret mandate known only as DIRECTIVE SEVEN.
Operating without a team, without recognition, and sometimes without backup, one agent and his unlikely partners follow threads others refuse to touch — from international conspiracies and high-level corruption to missing persons, apparitions, and secrets that were never meant to surface.
These are the cases that never made the news — because they were never supposed to.

The storytelling flows smoothly, engaging the reader in breath-taking actions throughout the book. There is all the time something new and surprising happening in the story, keeping the reader captured. There is a risk in taking this book as a bedtime reading, as you may not be willing to put it aside until reaching the last page.
Similarly with the first book, the author himself is the narrator of the audio book version of "Nadezhda dies last". I consider it as a huge added value. It makes the listening experience very unique and intensive. My experience was that the author is not just reading the story, but really living it through, and telling the story right to me.
The author, being a former FBI special agent, and possessing extensive experiences in countering serious cross-border crime and advising governments in security matters across the U.S., Europe, Central Asia, and the Balkans, has described all the professional details perfectly. All this, combined with inspirations from true experiences, and with tightly plotted story, makes the book highly enjoyable reading experience for everyone who are involved in the business, or otherwise enjoy the theme.
