The new novel from a master of the Cold War thriller . . .<br><br><b>'This is Robert Harris storytelling territory'</b> <i>Daily Mail</i><br><b>'Outstanding' </b><i>Sunday Times</i><br><b>'Tense, exciting and authentic' </b>Charles Cumming, author of <i>Judas 62</i><br><b>'Stunning' </b><i>The Times</i><br><b>'Brilliantly plotted' </b>John Sweeney, author of <i>Killer in the Kremlin</i><br><b>'A standout thriller' </b><i>Financial Times</i><br><br>1963. In a desolate Russian penal colony, the radio broadcasts news of the assassination of President John F. Kennedy...<br><br>Lieutenant Colonel Alexander Vasin's new posting as director of a gulag camp in the middle of the frozen tundra is far from a promotion. This is where disgraced agents, like Vasin, disappear - sent to die forgotten. And quietly. But tensions in the camp are running high and when a violent revolt breaks out, Vasin finds himself on the run. With him is a mysterious prisoner - who holds the key to the most dangerous secret in the world: who ordered Kennedy's murder.<br><br>In a breathless race that takes them through the Soviet Union - from the barren Siberian wastelands to the stunning halls of the Katerina Palace and the grey streets of Leningrad and Moscow - Vasin must stay one step ahead of the most ruthless spy and police organizations in the world . . . and keep the most wanted man in Russia alive. It's a journey that will push Vasin's loyalty, morality and his patriotism to the limit. And he must confront the ultimate choice: fall in line, or die fighting the system.<br><br>With masterful storytelling that weaves together an explosive moment in history with the cutthroat machinations of Soviet politics, Owen Matthews' <i>White Fox</i> captures the paradigm-shifting assassination from a unique Soviet point of view. This is a page-turning thriller - a race against time across Soviet Russia, where the participants face impossible odds and must decide between truth, justice and all-out war.
