The Night Agent – is the latest thriller show from the USA. This political conspiracy drama involves a powerful set of political players – who have direct and indirect access to the White House and they have lots of stake.
So, this Agent tries to unmask the people behind the treason. This series is based on Matthew Quirk’s novel of the same name. Although, its screen adaptation is slightly different from the plot of the original novel.
Matthew Quirk - the author of this 2019 novel has shared its plot line on his website - "to find a mole in the White House, an FBI agent must question everything. . . and trust no one." And that is what Agent Peter does. Please note:- it is a stand-alone novel without a sequel.

The Night Agent (2023) Series:- synopsis
It is a sophisticated, character-based, action-thriller centring on a low-level FBI Agent who works in the basement of the White House, manning a phone that never rings — until the night that it does, propelling him into a fast-moving and dangerous conspiracy that ultimately leads all the way to the Oval Office. Thus, while monitoring an emergency line, a vigilant FBI agent Peter Sutherland (Gabriel Basso) answers a call that plunges him into a deadly conspiracy involving a mole at the White House.
The Night Agent (2023) Series:- a brief review
I liked the positive energy and the never-say-die attitude of the FBI agent Peter Sutherland (Gabriel Basso) in this roller-coaster series spanning ten episodes long political thriller. Right from the opening scene of the series, Agent Peter has been in the thick of the action. While working in the basement of the White House, the emergency phone rings, he answers and then gets sucked into the dangerous conspiracy, which has originated in the Oval Office.
This series is one of Netflix‘s most popular English-language series of all time. Besides, Netflix renewed this show just a week after it debuted. Therefore, season two of this show is going to happen soon.
So, before it is too late, go ahead, grab your popcorn and try to watch season one of this show in one sitting. With its layered storyline and fast-paced action, it manages to hold one’s attention.
This fast-paced and action-oriented thriller is a perfect binge-watch. If we could binge-watch The Night Agent – all night, then we assume, so could you all.
