Lawyers in Gray
(2021)(Red, White, and Spy)
(The first book in the Spies in the Rose Garden series)A novel by John Ellsworth
Are you selling secrets to the Russians? Michael Gresham Wants to Know.
If you like legal intrigue and spies on spies, here's Michael Gresham in a desperate chess game against a Russian sniper and American lawyers who have sold out to the Russians. The prize is the right to control American oil fields. The Russians have moved in and are claiming parts of oil fields in Oklahoma, Colorado, the Dakotas, and Montana for themselves. The plan is to take control of American energy.
Michael installs a shadow law firm inside a giant law firm and goes after lawyers selling Top Secret documents to the Russians for use in court. He is increasingly successful until the FBI suddenly reports that the Russians
have sent an agent to kill Michael. Her name is Nadia Karamov, and she is the product of KGB/FSB schools that have made a deadly manhunter out of her.
Against this backdrop, Michael must root out Russian spies operating in the Gray law firm. Will Nadia get to him first?

From the author:
This book is the second edition of my book, Lawyers in Gray. Some parts of Lawyers in Gray appear in this book in different forms and meanings. Still, I must take this moment to give attribution to the genesis of this second edition. I made a run at the story I was trying to tell in Lawyers in Gray, but it fell short—for me.
So I took a similar storyline and made it much more. The result is this, a dense book, one that succeeds. This book will drive you up a wall if you’re a reader who likes to guess the bad guy or gal in the first few chapters. You won’t do that here because the novel is a classic case of split personality. It has a personality in the corpus of characters; however, they will not stand still while readers try to pigeonhole them and rule them in or out as the killer spy.
First readers are relied on by writers for direction. My first readers have told me only, Get it published! I agreed, but there were still hundreds of details even after everyone finished their chores of editing, proofing, etc. So here I sit, over Labor Day, chasing down double words and sentences even Harvard can't interpret. Hopefully, I can whittle those down to a low background hum, which is the closest any of us ever get.
Enjoy.
Genre: Thriller
