Praise for John's book Midnight in Moscow

H.R. McMaster, New York Times bestselling author of Dereliction of Duty, Battlegrounds, and At War with Ourselves

“Midnight in Moscow is an elegantly written and riveting account of serving in the toughest diplomatic post in the world. John Sullivan’s empathy, dedication to duty, and humility run through this book. I hope that young Americans will read it, and will emulate the author’s commitment to selfless service.”

“Midnight in Moscow is nonfiction that reads like a thriller. With rich, personal details, John Sullivan lifts the curtain on the real Russia and offers a compelling portrait of tough, effective diplomacy in our complex world.”
