Mirlinda Dzafer is a conundrum. She has a doctorate in
international economics and a position as an Associate Professor at
the University of Chicago's Gleacher School of Business. When not
teaching, she owns and operates a trendy sports bar, all while
raising her adopted daughter. But Mirlinda is also an elite
assassin. Raised from the age of four in a secret Spetsnaz GRU
program that began under the Soviet government, she speaks seven
languages like a native and is an expert with guns, knives,
hand-to-hand combat, explosives, and poisons. After defecting to
the U.S., she became a CIA operative, and eliminated the five
remaining assassins from the Soviet program. Yet nothing prepares
her for an email inviting her and seven other elite assassins to
participate in a contest to assassinate two high value targets. The
prize-one hundred million dollars. The targets-the vice president
and president of the United States. With the help of Cailan Bane
and Dan Gabriel, an ex-force recon Marine sniper team known as the
Death Whisperers, and Manny Alito, the Special Agent in Charge of
the Chicago FBI office, Mirlinda must hunt down the other assassins
to protect the vice president and president while Cailan and Dan
follow a trail to uncover the identity of the contest sponsors.
What they discover is an insidious plot that could undermine the
entire American political system and send the country into chaos.
Stopping it will require an impolitic solution.
