About this listen
A CIA officer and his recruit arrive in Damascus to hunt for a killer.
CIA case officer Sam Joseph is dispatched to Paris to recruit Syrian Palace official Mariam Haddad. The two fall into a forbidden relationship, which supercharges Haddad's recruitment and creates unspeakable danger when they enter Damascus to find the man responsible for the disappearance of an American spy.
But the cat and mouse chase for the killer soon leads to a trail of high-profile assassinations and the discovery of a dark secret at the heart of the Syrian regime, bringing the pair under the all-seeing eyes of Assad's spy catcher, Ali Hassan, and his brother Rustum, the head of the feared Republican Guard. Set against the backdrop of a Syria pulsing with fear and rebellion, Damascus Station is a gripping thriller that offers a textured portrayal of espionage, love, loyalty, and betrayal in one of the most difficult CIA assignments on the planet.

Extremely corny and cliche
So disappointed in this book given the incredible reviews on the cover. The CIA recruiting agent and his female Syrian intelligence operative target immediately develop feelings for each other and fall in love, now this has to be the most unrealistic and corny scenario ever. This happens early and takes out all the tension and drama that the plot promises. To think that both sides would send such unprofessional and frivolous people on these assignments just beggars belief. I am desperately searching for a decent spy author, except for the incredible Mick Herron I have been serially disappointed, where has all the talent gone?
