Near the end of the Cold War, Kaitlyn Stewart lands an apprenticeship at the Vienna State Opera. Soon after arriving, she is recruited by the CIA as the only female high profile operative in Mission: THAW. Both CIA and MI6 are in a race against time to uncover a human trafficking cartel set up by fascist Western politicians who are in business with the East Germans and KGB. They are exploiting refugees from the former satellite countries of the USSR. Mission: THAW must infiltrate the cartel in order to shut down the trafficking and destroy the slave labor in East Germany. If the GDR economy fails, the Berlin Wall will come down. Covering as an opera singer, Kaitlyn infiltrates the inner circle of the KGB and neo-Nazis, only to find out that they have a much more deadly, lucrative plan in the making: blueprints for a dirty bomb. MI6 agent Clive Matthews, who is considered the best secret agent in the free world, skillfully guides Kaitlyn through the crazy maze of the mission. Based on fact.

“In Sparling’s gripping debut, the brutal underworld of human trafficking crashes into the high-stakes game of Cold War espionage. Set during the twilight years of the Cold War, the story follows Kaitlyn Stewart, an American opera singer who is swept into the dangerous world of espionage. The novel’s relentless pacing, combined with its nuanced characters and high-stakes intrigue, makes it a must-read for fans of Cold War thrillers. Sparling is undoubtedly an author to watch” _ BookView Review
“Her initial assignment is simply to go to a party and watch some people, but she proves so adept at her work that her responsibilities keep growing. In an interesting twist on an old premise, she’s the one seducing beautiful men and casting them aside when she’s done using them. Take that, James Bond! The author is an opera singer herself, and it must be acknowledged that the opera scenes sound more credible than the spying ones. But who cares? This is an upbeat, fun story.” Justin Gaynor, Reader Views
“Overall, Mission Thaw is a fantastic, captivating, and noteworthy book that will be the perfect read for you to pick up and get lost in! That is why I, of course, have to award this stellar book, five stars! So be sure to have a read the book! You won’t regret it._ Aimee Ann, Red Headed Book Lover
