The Domino Game Kindle Edition

If you like Baldacci, Coben, Forsyth or Le Carre, you’ll love this riveting, prescient, intelligent international thriller with a plot that leaps out of today's headlines.

When Russian FSB agent Nikolai Aven starts investigating the affairs of Moscow tycoon, Marat Ivankov, he trips into a deadly web of corruption involving Russian organised crime and the oligarch's ruthless patrons and masters in the Kremlin.

With the lives of his wife and daughter at stake, Nikolai turns to the only person he believes he can trust, US Embassy attaché, Jack Hartman. But this is Russia. Trust is just another commodity that can be bought and sold. And nothing is what it seems.

Driven by a primal resolve to protect his twelve-year old daughter and exact revenge, Nikolai pursues his betrayers through the crazy, helter-skelter world of Moscow to the political power bases of New York and Washington, the fertile new frontier of Russian influence and corruption, in a life & death game he is determined to win.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"A knife edge thriller... a sophisticated, action-packed and energetically written novel that cries out to be made into a film. A real page-turner." - Melbourne Age

"A bracing and spirited page-turner." - Sydney Morning Herald

"A top-notch international thriller." - Canberra Times

"A ripping yarn reminiscent of Le Carré and Ludlum... had me transfixed." - Brisbane News
"US spies, Russian mafia, an idealistic young agent out to clean up his corruption-riddled country. Sound like you've heard it all before? Perhaps, but if the material is presented this well it doesn't matter... A thriller with all the necessary bits and no extras." - Adelaide Advertiser

"The Domino Game firms Wilson's reputation... feels like a big budget Hollywood movie..." - Courier Mail

"A tantalisingly tortuous plot... There's many a heart-in-the-mouth page between the first and last confrontations in this fast-paced, well-researched thriller." - Sunshine Coast Sunday

5.0 out of 5 stars Totally Fantastic!!
Reviewed in the United States on August 2, 2016

I just finished this book and have to say I totally loved it. The way the history of events was presented reminded me of the way Mario Puzo presented his history of events in The Godfather and the lengthy description of details brought Tom Clancy to mind. This book has all the elements required to keep the reader turning the 500+ pages to find out what happens next. A well written story from start to finish and I look foreword to reading more by this author.
The only downside was getting used to the formatting as it eliminated the traditional breaks between some of the paragraphs and I often had to reread a sentence or two to realize that I was transitioning from one setting to another. Overall I must say that this is one of the best of this type that I have read in many years and can see it as a fantastic movie.

4.0 out of 5 stars Important book, but needs some editing
Reviewed in the United States on September 9, 2016

This is an important book. It's a fictionalized account of how a US president is nothing but a figurehead who follows orders, and it reveals in the "fictionalized" account how many "government servants" are involved in organized crime. The situation is widespread across the globe.

Despite the excellent content, I'm giving it four stars rather than five. There are numerous punctuation errors, but worse, the book is difficult to read because many chapters lead directly into another without a break. This annoying and confusing practice occurs more frequently as the book progresses.

There are also a few errors that spell check can't find: "Fine" instead of "line," such as "Call our friend on the secure fine."

A master criminal in Russia works with government bigwigs . An investigator for the government comes upon tapes that incriminate his boss .What to do with the information? So starts a well written novel detailing some of the political/criminal/financial dealings in Russia.

3.0 out of 5 stars Too long and detailed
Reviewed in the United States on May 27, 2020

Story is good, characters a bit overdrawn but book is much too long, with too many irrelevant details and story line is broken. This reflect pagination issues. But I like the Russian crime export element.

I love a good thriller and this one ticks all the boxes. It is fast moving, well researched, has complex characters and plot and is an intelligent read. The author knows how to keep the reader hooked - I couldn't put it down.

4.0 out of 5 stars Ludlum-esque
Reviewed in the United States on December 9, 2017

Exciting story of double-dealing Russian and American wheeler-dealers and the morally upright people caught in the middle. Good character development. Didn't appreciate the foul language and the formatting was poor especially in Part 3 where it was difficult to follow paragraphing and location changes.. However, I stuck with it and injoyed the story and plot twists. I obtained the book at no charge through the Fussy Librarian.
