The First Recruit - Paperback

by Alton Ioerger (Author)

The First Recruit is an emotionally charged Cold War thriller where danger lurks around every corner and assassinations come at you with compelling intensity and swiftness. Sergeant James Witt, whose skill as a sniper makes him the first recruit in the CIAs newest covert program, slips unseen behind the Iron Curtain dozens of times into an opaque world of brutal conflicts and espionage. This is an unforgettable journal of faithfulness, courage, and aching loss amidst hope, resilience, and a reaffirmation of the human spirit.

This beautifully written fictional narrative is a sobering reveal of how a top-secret CIA project careened out of control into a catastrophe that remains classified even today.
