A Russian Defector—A Worldwide Dragnet—A Looming Assassination—Max Geller is back in Moscow.
Former CIA Russia expert Max Geller is in Australia, enjoying his sudden wealth in the company of his girlfriend, Vanessa. But this beachy bliss is short-lived when Max is ambushed.
Max discovers that his former CIA boss, Rodney, is using Vanessa as a hostage to force him to return to Moscow. His mission? Smuggle out a defector with a secret Kremlin war plan. But is the defector real or bait to lure Max into the hands of his old enemy, FSB Colonel Zabluda. To save Vanessa, Max heads to Russia, with his reliable crew, Jill Rucker, Cherri Layton, and Tony-D covering his back.
Zabluda learns that Max is in Moscow and launches a manhunt, pursuing Max and the defector across Europe and the Atlantic. However, the defector has his own agenda and neither Max nor the Russians are sure what it is. When the Russians seem to know Max’s escape route, the CIA suspects there is a traitor in Max’s crew. Meanwhile, Max is in a race to avoid capture and deliver the defector’s secret to the CIA in time to prevent a war.
And what’s going on with those assassins in Mexico?
