Former CIA Spokesman talks about Brag's Book



Former CIA Spokesman and Chief Liaison Officer to the U.S. Senate Lauds Kingmaker



I’ve known Alexey for many years and am well aware that he knows his way around many of the more remote and exotic locales. I found his Kingmaker an extraordinarily fast-paced and suspenseful read especially when you realize this is his first time out. Trager establishes a strong enough presence to merit a sequel ideally with a few of the truly exotic characters Alexey introduces in this story. Alexey has a good feel for the telling one-liner and Trager’s out-of-the-box getaways put Indiana Jones to shame. I’m looking forward to the next one.

The secret to life is to bang the rocks together.
