Book Review
Executive Actions

EXECUTIVE ACTIONS by Gary Grossman is a globe-hopping thrill going back to the US-Russia Cold War and the ramifications of plots put in place then.

What a heart-pounding, keep you guessing wild ride.

I grew up under the ever-present scenario of war with Russia, I watched as Reagan said “Trust, but verify”, I watched communism slowly crumble and Mikhail Gorbachev cause “Gorby-lock” in NYC when he came to visit. There was always whispers of the KGB/FSB having a school devoted to teaching young children/young adults to become Americanized to infiltrate our society and bring it down from the inside.

Executive Actions takes this premise and explores what could happen if that actually happened. Mr. Grossman’s story is terrifying in its ramifications.

Bad guys abound, good guys trying to keep up and legal knots all make this an exhilarating and horrifying read.

From the Oval Office of the White House, commuter trains of the Northeast, law offices of Boston, beaches of Florida, mosques of the Middle East, CIA headquarters, to the newsroom of the New York Times, this story hops the globe bringing to life how fragile our democracy could be.

What a heart pounding read and a heart stopping climax. Bravo Mr. Grossman.

Recommend?

I recommend this to everyone! Boomers, Gen X, Millennials – everyone will get something from this geopolitical thriller.
