Meet author Christian Hirsch at Barnes & Noble Sept. 28th

AUGUSTA, Ga. (WJBF)– His name may look familiar to you, as Christian Hirsch is a realtor in the two-state. But he’s also the author of The Moscow Enigma , an espionage thriller set in Moscow’s dark underworld.

Here’s the publisher’s overview:

“Extortion, lies, duplicity and murder… at the center, unknowingly, is Alexandra Malikova, a white-collared professional by day and a high-end escort by night. Amid the chaos Alexandra decides to face the scars of her adoptive past, the emptiness of her superficial life and the future with the one man she has fallen in love with. Where no one is who they seem and a vengeful assassin is carrying out orders to prevent a weapon’s deal, who will emerge unscathed? And alive? Christian Hirsch is a business professional who has travelled and worked throughout North America, Europe, the Middle East and Africa. It’s having lived in so many diverse places and his exposure to the East and West that gives Christian a unique perspective in his writing. “

Hirsch will be signing copies of his book this Saturday, September 28th, from Noon – 5PM at the Barnes & Noble store at Augusta Mall.

Hirsch is a former senior executive who helped lead international lifestyle brands abroad in cities including Munich, Amsterdam, Dubai, and Moscow. He says writing has always been in his blood, and the first line of the book actually came to him when he was in college.

“My inspiration to write a novel set in Moscow was because of my many travels there when I was helping an international company further develop its Eastern European business. The book was sold into a handful of UK-based bookstore chains as the publisher is out of London.”

And this is a cool little nugget: the reader of the audio book is a member of the famous Redgrave acting family! Colette Redgrave is related to Vanessa and has acted in numerous television roles as well as live theater.
