This is the second book following CIA agent Bill Heflin. The first which was also reviewed on Curating Edits is titled The Bucharest Dossier. The Bucharest Legacy is another formidable book by William Maz. If you enjoy a good spy-thriller book, do not hesitate to read these two books.
Bill Hefflin gets pulled back in to do Ingram one favor. That one favor sends him back into Bucharest and right in the middle of a firefight. Someone has disclosed the exact location where he was going to pick up a defector. That defector came into the U.S. and turned the CIA and Hefflin’s life upside down when he mentioned Boris and now Bill Hefflin is suspect number one as the mole.
A Return to Bucharest
The Bucharest Legacy makes Hefflin return under different circumstances back to his native Bucharest. He not only is there to find the mole that can clear his name, but he still has some loose ends to tie with his childhood as well. Like Hefflin says in timely moments nothing is even a coincidence.
William Maz has created the most entertaining spy/thriller books. I can compare it to an onion and its many layers, which Hefflin is piecing together from every encounter he has in Bucharest. Boris, his asset, was a man, a myth, a legend, and he lived such an extensive life. Many times you end up seeing Hefflin take a new version of what Boris stood for.
A Suspenseful Book
If you enjoyed The Bucharest Dossier, William Maz does not disappoint with this new book. The Bucharest Legacy is well-written, suspenseful, and intriguing. More importantly, I hope we get a follow-up book after this.
