Red Sparrow: A Novel by Jason Matthews

The Soviet Union is gone, but the Russian intelligence aparatus lives on - just in a different form. Those that are out of favor with the government have a habit of dying from mysterious causes. There are also international matters to attend to. Sparrows are women trained in the art of seduction. They use their talents to reach vulnerabilities and attract information. The book focuses on a reluctant Sparrow that wanted to be a "real spy". She ends up in a relationship with an American Spy. They seem to know what is going on, yet want to continue. Yet, they still want to complete their tasks. It can become one confusing mess.
