Lars Bergman works for the CIA as their in-house locksmith. There’s not a lock, safe, or door he cannot open. Once upon a time, he was part of a covert CIA team, but now he is nearing retirement. When Deputy Director Irene Johannsen goes missing, Lars is asked to open her safe, and only finds a receipt and a picture of Irene and Lars together from when they were in the field together. When she turns up dead, Lars decides it’s time to get back in the game and heads for Poland, and then Switzerland, and finds a briefcase he couldn’t open years ago. Lars soon finds the CIA has turned against him, and he will need to use all his skills to save himself and find the bad guys. This is an intense, action-packed thriller that starts off fast and never lets go. A perfect summer thriller for your beach needs.
