Set in contemporary Washington, DC, Red Swan begins with an ominous phone call from Carson McGill, the deputy director of operations in the CIA, to retired CIA officer Preston Allender: Henry Wallace is dead.
A behind-the-scenes operator at the CIA, Wallace was integral to the agencyâs secret war against Chinaâs national intelligence service, which infiltrates government and military offices, major businesses, and systems crucial to our security. Wallace had severely damaged Chinaâs Washington spy ring with a devastating ruse, a so-called âblack swan,â in which a deep-undercover female agent targeted and destroyed a key Chinese official. Now, Wallaceâs mysterious death suggests that the CIA itself has been compromised and that China has someone inside the agency.
But as Allender quietly investigates, he makes a shocking discovery that will upend the entire American intelligence apparatus. For Wallaceâs black swan operation may have been turned against the CIA; a red swan is flying and the question is who is she, what is her target, and where will she land?
