The Puppeteer has realized that Talya is a threat, and he understands that there is only one way to deal with threats – and that is to eliminate them.
In They Called Me The Puppeteer 3, Talya and the CSIS have come close to discovering how certain documents, forged by the CIA, have been used to create cover for the identity of The Puppeteer. He knows how important it is to stop Talya getting any further in her investigation, and he is willing to take whatever steps are necessary to prevent that – even if those steps mean death for Talya. If one domino falls, so will all of the rest, and if they do fall, they will do so in a spectacular fashion. Discover the dark lengths to which The Puppeteer will go in this, the superbly exciting closing book of the hi-octane, adrenalin-packed The Puppeteer of Washington series.
