And it tears at Lynn?s integrity who, under counterintelligence investigation, desperately compromises an innocent code clerk.While in Beijing, the Ministry of State Security-to counter the US and Russian programs-unleashes China?s deadly answer to Kaleidoscope.Intimately personal and international in scope, Kaleidoscope is a tale of faith and betrayal, loyalty and violence, the agonies of love without truth, the secrets of KALEIDOSCOPE entangle with those of the Kingston family.For one to survive: the other must be destroyed.'Michael Frost Beckner is the rarest of spy novelists, a beautiful and compelling writer [with] a mastery of tradecraft and a deep understanding of how espionage really works.'
