(2019)
(The fourth book in the Joe Johnson Thriller series)
A novel by

 
 
The darkest secrets of a Russian oligarch - a legacy from Stalin. A hidden batch of the CIA's Stinger missiles. And the insatiable Afghan thirst for revenge. Ex-CIA war crimes investigator Joe Johnson is sucked into an inquiry which delves into the deadly world of Soviet and US undercover operations in Afghanistan during the 1980s - and mysterious connections to current US and Russian politics.

Johnson and his ex-MI6 colleague Jayne Robinson find themselves pursuing a Russian oligarch with strong links to Putin and a past he would rather keep hidden - and also an Afghan Mujahideen bent on the most bloodthirsty revenge. The investigation is thrown awry by Johnson's crooked former CIA boss, now on the run, and by a miscalculation of the dangers lurking in the Hindu Kush mountains, ridden with heavily armed Taliban insurgents.

The story reaches a raw climax in Brooklyn, Manhattan, Moscow, and Kabul, as Johnson battles to overcome the powerful forces lined up against him, including former KGB agents. Stalin's Final Sting is a gripping thriller - the fourth in the Joe Johnson series - with some twists that the listener will never see coming. Meet Joe Johnson today, and see how he uncovers buried truths from the past.
