An action-packed CIA spy thriller, part family dramedy - part quirky comedy, and all too human characters.
Gib Alexander is a divorced suburban dad who also happens to be a deadly efficient, off the books, CIA contractor. Balancing the demands of his perilous profession, his resentful ex-wife, and troubled son is a dangerous juggling act. His safety and the safety of his family depend on his fanatical precautions to keep his two lives separate.
When a young computer coder threatens a top secret NSA project that could tilt the balance in the escalating international cyberwars, Gib is hired to conduct a ghost rendition, spiriting the coder away to a black site in Egypt for extreme interrogation that is outlawed in the United States. But what appears at first to be a straight forward contract turns into a morally ambiguous conflict that sets off a CIA power struggle. Caught in the middle, Gib finds his two lives set on a collision course that will ultimately threaten them both.

Praise for Ghost Rendition: A CIA Thriller by Larry Weitzman
“What happens when the most dangerous job in the world gets personal? The non-stop action and non-stop plot twists in Larry Weitzman’s GHOST RENDITON keep the pages swiftly turning right in sync with the mind bending mystery that this noir novel’s hero must navigate at break neck speed.” — Lewis Gould, Emmy and Peabody award winning producer of Law and Order
“This is more than a typical spy novel. It is full of gripping plot twists, but the family drama and the quirky comedy set it apart. This is a great story well told.” — Ross Greenburg, Executive Producer of Miracle, Emmy and Peabody award winning producer, and former President of HBO Sports
“This is a thriller, a spy novel, a family story, and great fun. The characters are vivid and rendered with surprising humor. You’ll read it too fast but it will stay with you for a long time." — Marek Fuchs, former New York Times columnist and author of A Cold-Blooded Business
“If you feel the need for a great read, this is a spy vs. spy techno thriller that's fast and furious, a non-stop adrenaline rush. I loved the characters and the wild twists I never saw coming.” — Sheldon Woodbury, author of The World on Fire and Cool Million
