""" The Bucharest Dossier is compulsively readable . . . William Maz has written a wrenching, action-packed story of love lost and regained as we follow a returning ex-pat in search of his past and the love of his life against the violent backdrop of the Romanian people's revolt against Ceausescu's vicious communist regime."" F. Paul Wilson, New York Times best-selling author "" The Bucharest Dossier offers up a smooth and scintillating mix of Robert Ludlum and John le Carré at their level best. William Maz's seminal effort is a masterwork of spy trade craft, as well as a prototype of everything a great tale is supposed to be. Solid writing and superb storytelling make this one a must read sure to leave its mark in the crowded international thriller field. Blistering, bracing, and bold."" Jon Land, USA Today best-selling author ""The new thriller The Bucharest Dossier is a must read especially for John le Carré fans. A tense, fast moving story with an unpredictable ending! The author knows well his subject. One couldn't walk around 1980s Bucharest without bumping into a spy or the secret police."" Anderson Harp, author of the William Parker thriller series ""[ The Bucharest Dossier is] an accomplished debuta love story inside an espionage thriller inside a historical record, with all three elements working together to maximum effect. Very impressive and very recommended."" Lee Child, New York Times best-selling author "" The Bucharest Dossier is a realistic and spellbinding portrayal of spycraft during the Romanian Revolution of 1989 reminiscent of Le Carre's best work. Part Bond, part Bourne, CIA analyst Bill Hefflin searches for stolen billions, solves puzzles, and dodges assassins amidst the chaos of a bloody massacre and a changing geopolitical world. Highly recommended."" William Bernhardt, New York Times best-selling author"
