Author
I write espionage fiction and comment on international affairs.

My first published novel is Kingmaker, which is available worldwide on Amazon and can be ordered through any bookstore.

Peter Earnest, former CIA Principal Spokesman wrote:
I’ve known Alexey for many years and am well aware that he knows his way around many of the more remote and exotic locales. I found his Kingmaker an extraordinarily fast-paced and suspenseful read especially when you realize this is his first time out. Trager establishes a strong enough presence to merit a sequel ideally with a few of the truly exotic characters Alexey introduces in this story. Alexey has a good feel for the telling one-liner and Trager’s out-of-the-box getaways put Indiana Jones to shame. I’m looking forward to the next one.

About the author
Alexey Braguine flew for a CIA secret airline in Laos, chased elephant poachers in Kenya, led horseback tours into the Chilean Andes. The explosive pages of his novels reveal not only a vivid imagination, but the experience gathered in a thriller life.


Synopsis
Powerful transnational commercial interests manipulate the War on Terror and news media. Cynical former CIA operative John Trager’s search for the truth leads him to Africa and the mysterious anthropologist Simone Loriot. Her passionate quest to save her adopted Central African country from looters of natural resources draws Trager into a violent whirlwind of mercenaries, tribal rivalries and a traitor in The White House. Facing disaster, Trager finds his true self and reason for self-sacrifice.

Kingmaker Crowns Braguine, September 26, 2008
By J. Maryott (United State of Texas).



Not normally being a fan of this type of novel, consider it high praise when I say that it truly is a diamond in the rough.

Suspense, action, humor, and plot twists are masterfully brought together by Braguine's witty writing style. I doubt anyone could read this book without stirring their sense of adventure.

Read but the first chapter, and you will find it very hard to put down :D
