New Novel 'Spies Like Us' by L. Russell Records Highlights Family and Global Intrigue

Spies Like Us by L. Russell Records, the first installment in the trilogy, The Colloways is all set to shake the world of fiction.

TX, UNITED STATES, October 31, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Author L. Russell Records announces the release of Spies Like Us, the first installment in his trilogy The Calloways. This new work of fiction focuses on storytelling with international intrigue, exploring the resilience of two teenage brothers and the moral challenges faced by their father, a former U.S. Navy intelligence officer.

Spies Like Us follows Ethan and Morgan Calloway, brothers who are uprooted from their Texas home to a small New England town. At the same time, their father, Kirby Calloway, travels to Nigeria to secure a national security software deal. As Kirby’s work exposes a rogue CIA unit involved in human trafficking and political corruption, the Calloway family is pushed into danger. A home invasion and a fight for survival test the brothers’ training, courage, and bond.

The novel highlights the fast-paced suspense of spying. The Calloway brothers evolve from ordinary teenagers into determined young men, guided by skills learned on a Texas ranch. Meanwhile, Kirby’s commitment to justice, his loyalty to President Muhari of Nigeria, and his partnership with CIA agent Ken Broussard (“Katanga”) place him at the center of a global struggle with lasting consequences.

Spies Like Us explores themes of loyalty and the fight against corruption, offering readers a narrative that spans from Cape Cod to Nigeria and beyond. It is the beginning of a series that continues with The Zurich Conspiracy and Commander Calloway.

Spies Like Us is now available on Amazon.
