  "the middleman" by Carolynr (see profile) 09/06/18

traces the rise and fall of a domestic left-wing terrorist group. Told from the individual perspectives of an FBI agent, an undercover agent within the group, a convert to the terrorist organization, and a writer on the edges of the whole affair, this is another tightly wound thriller, and an intimate exploration of the people behind the politics, from a master of suspense.

but is the group really a terrorist group? or a protest group? Not a bad spy fiction piece, but as someone said, not compelling literature. decent read, but read carefully. Lots of twists/turns and you have to pay attention. Got a little too wordy in some spots.

never very sure if this is the right kind of book for a book club. So I guess if your group likes to read spy thrillers then this would be a good choice
