Synopsis

Gunther Probst, CIA Field Director, is found, throat cut, in a saltwater marsh on Cape Cod.

Russia's spies have begun to assassinate CIA's best operatives!

Raissa Ribeiro, ex-CIA assassin, ex-supermodel, retired after being burned alive, is an obvious suspect. On the run, Raissa provides limited evidence to Zachary Mannheim, CIA's Chief Spy-Hunter.

Mannheim cannot convince a Congressional Committee or the Agency's Director of the Kremlin's most secret conspiracy. Tasked with the worst kind of cover-up, Mannheim must juggle too many interests, too many secrets...including his own.

Tangled in a Russian web of deceit, photos in Raissa's control can expose Congressmen, Investment Bankers, a senior CIA executive, Britain’s Secret Services, and a deep cover foreign agent within CIA. Stolen acoustic data from nuclear submarines, a call-girl’s murder and Raissa's involvement in multiple conspiracies are the tip of Mannheim's personal iceberg.

Aaron Frankel manages Sheikh Khalid bin Rahman’s terrorist billions without regard for collateral damage. Neither is fully aware of the other's plans.

Reckless in breaking his own rules, Fulton Bennett, head of CIA’s National Clandestine Service intends to confiscate billions from terrorism financier Sheikh Khalid bin Rahman, and Frankel, the Sheikh's investment guru. Caught in a honey-trap, Bennett must rely on Mannheim to rescue his career and hijack Frankel’s billions.

Sir Edward Poynter, head of Britain’s Secret Services, plans independent action against Frankel. Caroline Poynter, Sir Edward’s daughter, is Sheikh bin Rahman’s lover. Her secret history with Fulton Bennett comes with murderous entanglements. Andrew Poynter, son of Sir Edward, is selling secret data related to US and British nuclear submarines.

Grover Norris, former CIA Director and Investment Banker, inserted in Bennett’s job by POTUS, orders Mannheim to maintain Bennett's house arrest - and authorizes a kill-order on Raissa.

Betrayed by Grover Norris at CIA, Raissa’s planned execution is flawed. Her celebrity, sexuality and skill prove lethal for contract killers. Re-evaluating Gunther’s murder, she returns home to Rio’s infamous slums to create a daring pair of videos to lure Gunther’s killer. Viral in two hours, the daring, provocative, videos tilt the playing-field.

Andrew's European successes are intoxicating. He flies to Rio to finalize a half billion dollar sale to Brazil’s navy.

Another major assassination rocks CIA.

In Rio chaos reigns. Luck and fate intrude upon everyone's future.

Spy-hunters cannot rationalize the truth…only a brutal assessment of reality delivers traitors to prison and terrorists to their funerals.

Zachary Mannheim contends with too many loose ends...playing God exacts a terrible price. He balances a Spy-Hunter’s artfulness with a politician’s cunning, then metes out justice and revenge in unequal proportion.
