Synopsis
Covert Ops . . . Global Power Struggles . . . Nuclear Terrorization . . . When contract military operative Roy Young leads a daring mission to spring former Soviet oligarch Mikhail Kasinov from a Siberian gulag, he unknowingly sets in motion a clandestine plan to subvert the balance of world energy markets. Using his international fame as a springboard to challenge the Russian presidency, the newly freed Kasinov quickly makes the first move in a global power struggle over Russia’s bountiful oil fields. Former military man and behavioral psychologist, Roy is the perfect investigator to undo the brewing chaos he helped start. With the aid of a former girlfriend, Melanie Bauer—herself a skilled stock-market analyst in London—Roy gains all the leverage he needs to prove that Kasinov isn’t the sympathetic oil mogul and presidential hopeful he pretends to be in the public eye. Even as Russia and Great Britain bring the world to the brink of nuclear war over Kasinov’s right to remain in the UK, Roy traces the scheme all the way back to the U.S. intelligence agency that first hired him to rescue the oligarch. Now, it is up to Roy to avert nuclear disaster, expose the truth, and undermine the shadowy organization working behind the scenes.
