Icon is a gripping tale of espionage in which an unorthodox American agent comes out of forced retirement to stop a charismatic politician from gaining ultimate power in Russia.

A behind-the-scenes spymaster pulling strings, corruption and betrayal in the intelligence community, and the madness of the would-be dictator intent upon turning back the clock and starting the Cold War all over again keep the story moving with unexpected twists and turns.

The scary part:  If this story is not true, it could have been.
