A Russian arrives in Singapore with a secret to sell. When the Russian is killed and Sam Joseph, the CIA officer dispatched for the meet, goes missing, Artemis Procter is made a scapegoat and run out of the service. Traded back in a spy swap, Sam appears at Procter\u2019s central Florida doorstep months later with an explosive secret: there is a Russian mole hidden deep within the upper reaches of CIA.<\/p>\n As Procter and Sam investigate, they arrive at a shortlist of suspects made up of both Procter\u2019s closest friends and fiercest enemies. The hunt soon requires Procter to dredge up her own checkered past in service of CIA, placing her and Sam into the sights of a savvy Russian spymaster who will protect Moscow\u2019s mole in Langley at all costs, even if it means wreaking bloody havoc across the United States.<\/p>\n Bouncing between the corridors of Langley and the Kremlin, the thrilling new novel by David McCloskey explores the nature of friendship in a faithless business, and what it means to love a place that does not love you back.<\/p>\n For your chance to win a copy of The Seventh Floor<\/strong> by David McCloskey, click HERE<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n UK Only and the giveaway closes at 11.59 PM UK time on Sunday 9th February 2025.<\/p>\n Please note that I will need a UK address to pass to the publisher for the randomly chosen winner\u2019s prize, but will not retain any personal details once the prize has been sent.<\/p>\n David McCloskey is a former CIA analyst and consultant at McKinsey & Company.
