The Asset

A Lance Spector Thriller, Book 1

By: Saul Herzog

Narrated by: Jay Myers

Montana, USA
When Lance Spector quit the CIA, he swore he was out for good. One more government lie and he would go off the deep end. They could find someone else to do their dirty work. As far as he was concerned, Washington, Langley, the Pentagon could all go to hell.

Yekaterinburg, Russia
A secret Russian expedition returns with a devastating new pathogen, harvested from the frozen corpses of mammoths. It's the biological super weapon they've been looking for, an apocalypse-level pathogen, a virus more deadly than anything ever to come out of a Russian lab. Something that will stop NATO and the Americans in their tracks.
A Biological Chernobyl.

Washington DC, USA
A mysterious vial, sealed in a titanium case, arrives at CIA headquarters. They have no idea who sent it, but it comes with a note.
"I will only speak to Lance Spector."

The Asset by Saul Herzog is a stunning new thriller, a spectacular tour de force, a book that has single-handedly taken the publishing industry, and Hollywood rights departments, by storm. This dazzling debut kicks off the jaw-dropping new Lance Spector series, and sets the stage for a franchise that's on track to break all records. From the mind of one of the most creative and versatile writers working in America today, this book will go down as a classic of the spy thriller genre.

If you listen to only one book this year, this is it. Action, adventure, rebellion, provocative foreign agents, characters you can sink your teeth into. If you're looking for a new spy thriller series that will stay with you long after you listen to the last word, look no further.

Recommended for fans of Lee Child's Jack Reacher, Vince Flynn's Mitch Rapp, Robert Ludlum's Jason Bourne, and Brad Thor's Scot Harvath.

I couldn't stop listening to The Asset

I enjoy reading and listening to spy thrillers! I couldn't stop listening and reading The Asset! In fact, I stayed up all night listening to the audio version of the book! The storyline, characters, and the audio reader were all done to perfection for someone like me who is addicted to a well written story!

Riveting

Thank you for sharing a story with so many points of view. It makes for a really well rounded reading.

Great series to stumble on!

Vince Flynn would love Saul Herzog. My favorites are Mitch Rapp, Orphan X, etc. Tbis is a great addition and I am glad I found.

really gripping

I liked the main character, I'm listening to the audiobook so it doesn't flow the best but it keeps you engaged and remember which part you were at last for the most part.

The asset

I enjoyed the character development, subtle and yet drawing me into who they are. The plot was also believable and not heroic but believable from those that walked such paths. Well done!
