J.D. Narramore has concocted a splendid espionage narrative that takes you back to the days of the Cold War with all the shaky alliances and constant secrets held between friends and foes alike.
Audrey Davis, former spy, is settling back into a life of safety and security in the United States after a turbulent time working undercover in Russia. When a former foe seeks her out for retribution for the events of the first book, Davis must step back into the field one more time to not only stop a murderous operative, but also prevent a global conflict just when US and Russia seem to be undergoing the mutual disarmament accords.
The rich aroma of crisp and fast-paced storytelling with the Cold War background is immaculately rendered by J.D. Narramore’s strong characterizations and world-building set extensively in the grounded events of history. Audrey Davis is an exhilarating protagonist. From her analytical mind to her tactical training, she takes the fight to the enemies of the United States of America with gritty determination and courage while grappling with the emotional upbringing of her sons troubled by the violence of her past.
This book packs quite a few pleasant surprises and kicks for fans of hard-hitting action, particularly those who wish to read aerial combat sequences like something out of Top Gun. If you’ve wanted to read F-14 Tomcats engage in cool and dangerous dogfights with Migs, you’ve got to read The Nameless Height.
The Nameless Height is an elegant cold-war espionage thriller balanced with precisely the right amount of cerebral spycraft and adrenaline-gushing action. J.D. Narramore is making a dent in the Thrillerverse and I can’t wait to read more of his spy thrillers.
