Operación Kazán
Premio Primavera de Novela 2022
Vallés, Vicente
The Soviet intelligence services design for that baby the most audacious espionage plan ever imagined. A few years later, Lavrenti Beria, the bloodthirsty chief of the Bolshevik police, will present this plan to Stalin, who will appropriate the operation and turn it into a personal and extremely secret mission, warning his executor of something very important: he will not be can get out of hand. It will be Operation Kazan. Neither Beria nor Stalin will live to see how that boy born two decades ago in New York, and who has become a spy, culminates his ambitious project, dormant for decades. Already in our days, the rise to power in Moscow of an insatiable and reckless KGB agent will relaunch Operation Kazan, to sabotage the West and restore Russia to superpower status. But will it be successful? Will the Russian leader achieve his true goal of controlling the United States from the Kremlin? Will Stalin's order be carried out or will it get out of hand? The protagonists of Operation Kazan travel from the Russian Revolution in 1917 to the American elections of the 21st century, passing through the horrors of the Second World War, the Normandy landings, the Cold War, the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989, the collapse of the communist regimes in the 1990s and the current Russian interference in Western democracies. What role will the young spies Teresa Fuentes, from the Spanish CNI, and Pablo Perkins, from the CIA, play in the decisive phase of this intrigue?
