REBEKAH KOFFLER is a Russian-born U.S. intelligence expert. Working with the Defense Intelligence Agency and the Central Intelligence Agency's National Clandestine Service, she has led "red" teams during wargames and briefed the Pentagon, the White House, and NATO on Russian affairs. U.S. military commanders have called her a "national asset," and she received the National Intelligence Professional Award. Now an independent consultant, she lives near Washington, D.C., with her husband, the journalist Keith Koffler, and their children.
"Putin's Playbook-a hard-hitting, very frank inspection of the man
and his Russia. Rebekah Koffler brings insight that only a
Russian-born analyst could. A page-turner dripping with facts and
conclusions that gives us clarity few have attained; a must-read
for those who want to understand [Russia and President Putin]...."
-GENERAL PHIL BREEDLOVE, USAF (Ret.), seventeenth Supreme
Allied Commander Europe
"Putin's Playbook is an intriguing and informative read for those
interested in peeking into the Kremlin's motivations and wartime
strategies. Koffler deliberately warns not to underestimate
Russians' deep-rooted anger over our nation's moral assertiveness
and how Putin's animosity can escalate into war. A frightening,
eye-opening prediction for U.S.-Russian relations, Putin's Playbook
will make readers see the urgency of developing a counterstrategy
to the brilliance of Putin's playbook." -NEWT GINGRICH,
former Speaker of the House of Representatives
"When the Soviet Union suddenly ceased to exist in 1991, a mortal
threat to America appeared to disappear. What didn't disappear was
the 'counterintelligence state' that the Bolsheviks created in
1917. In the face of a feckless thirty-year American post-Soviet
policy, the hard men of the KGB, successors to the totalitarian
secret police, simply expropriated the wealth and remaining power
of Russia. Predictably, Putin's Russia created an American enemy
where there was none. With a clear head and the sharp eye of a
senior intelligence analyst, Rebekah Koffler details the ominous
threat we now face." -KENNETH deGRAFFENREID, former senior
director of intelligence programs, President Reagan's National
Security Council
