The Nemesis Manifesto by Eric Van Lustbader

3 1/2 stars
Evan Ryder is a female agent with skills akin to "Mission Impossible" level. She finds herself in a situation where a mysterious organization called Nemesis, reminiscent of the Third Reich, is strategically killing off agents, putting out misinformation and generally wreaking havoc with the US. She is sent to find said organization and bring them down. This is one of the fastest paced spy thrillers I have read in a long time. There is so much misinformation, double agent activity and mysterious ties to her past and others that you have to pay close attention. The first in a new series and a must for all those armchair special agents and readers of smart covert operation thrillers.
