A lone female agent finds herself abandoned in enemy territory in
this riveting espionage thriller Having completed her mission to
silence an agency defector, CIA operative Cassie Bradbury finds
herself cut adrift in Moscow with no documents, no tickets and no
identification. Hot on her trail are the Kremlin, the Russian Mafia
- and Sean Ravensdale, the disgraced ex-CIA agent who has been sent
to track her down. Realizing that she has been set up and is now
expendable, Cassie will need all her courage and resourcefulness to
outwit her pursuers - and stay alive long enough to exact revenge
on the man who recruited her, who trained her - who betrayed her.
Exiled ballerina Lena Sergeyevna lies in hospital in New York, dying of cancer. Desperate to reconcile with her estranged daughter, she begins to reveal the truth about her flight from the 1986 Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant disaster where her husband Yuri, a nuclear physicist, disappeared while performing top-secret research.
We discover that Lena’s former life involved deep compromises for which she has paid a heavy price in shame and self-loathing. What happened to Yuri, was he somehow involved in the ‘accident’, and what made Lena leave the USSR and take up exotic dancing in the US?
Set in a geopolitical hotspot, Ukraine, this intelligent memoir–thriller explores the struggle for self-expression, the triumph of truth over deception, and the impact on the human psyche of personal and global catastrophe.

professor and Vietnam veteran. He's Washington's choice to stop a

the reason why is disturbing, explosive, and extremely deadly.
