"With Beirut Station, Mr. Vidich has written his most emotionally involving and suspenseful book yet."

"This is an outstanding thriller that has its roots sunk deep in a conflict that has shaped modern history."

"[Vidich] writes with an easy elegance about the ethical dilemmas of espionage and their human cost. Beirut Station is one of his best."

"Vidich has firmly established himself in the very top flight of espionage writers, with a series of slow-burn character studies putting him in the line of le Carré. In his latest novel, Beirut Station, he adds a shot of adrenaline into the mix, as his story follows a young Lebanese-American CIA agent involved in a joint operation with Mossad in Beirut 2006. She soon begins to suspect a deeper conspiracy in play, and when she voices her concerns, becomes a target herself. The interiority of Vidich's characters is as complex as ever, but the meticulous operations work will keep you turning the pages and moving deeper into the chaos."

"In assessing the 'best' of the year lists that have come out so far, we determined that one of the areas of fiction that gets short shrift in these lists is spy/espionage fiction, so we determined to use our decades of reading and reviewing experience in this area to come up with the following list. 2023 is a great year for the publication of excellent spy fiction. If you are a fan of this type of entertainment, you are in for some real treats. Enjoy. George, Jeff and Steele."

"This well-plotted thriller deftly mixes spy craft with questions about identity and justice."

"Vidich's oeuvre already solidifies his place in the genre. Readers unfamiliar with his work will be dazzled by his vision."

"First and foremost it's a compelling story, one that gripped me from start to finish, but it also awakened in me a dormant interest in the complex politics of the Middle East."

"There is plenty of death to avenge in this tense, fast-moving novel."

"This taut, nuanced spy thriller centered on Lebanese American CIA agent Analise Assad further establishes Vidich as a new master of the genre. Vidich ably describes daily life in a war-torn setting and convincingly highlights the dangers Analise faces as a woman in her position. He brings the action to a satisfying conclusion. Fans of Eric Ambler, Graham Greene, and John le Carré will be eager for more."
