The officers started their hunt when the traitor in the Ukrainian General Staff in Kyiv, reported to them that the Ukrainians know of Russian war plans.

In the clandestine world of international espionage, what begins as a routine CIA assignment of Alex Curtner as the Chief of Station for Russia and Ukraine morphs into a personal struggle.

To discover the identity of the traitor is a race against time. Alex must solve this mystery and track him down in Kyiv before the Russians can neutralize Rider. If he exposes this traitor, Moscow will lose the feedback from their man, and Alex might save Rider. But if the Russians strike first, the CIA’s entire operation – and Alex himself – could be compromised.

With lives hanging in the balance, Alex faces a chilling truth: If the West continues slow-walking arms to Ukraine, succumbing to Russian nuclear blackmail, the Ukrainians might not entrust their fate to the courage of leaders in the West or to the whims of the next election. The ultimate weapons they relinquished for hollow security guarantees could reemerge, not as a deterrent but as a last, desperate gamble.

WHEN THE WHOLE WORLD HAS TURNED ITS BACK ON YOU, WHO CAN YOU TRUST? NO ONE. NOT EVEN YOURSELF!

They call him Keeper, but lately Jack Marconi has specialized in losing things. Just last year, he lost his wife in a mysterious traffic accident, and ever since, he’s felt like he’s losing his mind. As the warden of the maximum-security Green Haven Prison, home to 2,500 of New York’s most hardened criminals, Marconi can’t afford to drop focus, even for an instant. But he’s been slipping up on the job, and he’s tormented by flashbacks to the Attica uprising. All of which makes him ripe for the role of patsy when a convicted cop killer named Eduardo Vasquez stages a daring breakout on his watch.

From the start, Marconi suspects an inside job. What he doesn’t suspect is that he’ll become the target of a frame-up. Soon drugs are planted in Marconi’s office, embarrassing photos are circulated, and he finds himself facing trumped-up charges of obstruction of justice. With his supervisors clearly setting him up to take the fall, Marconi hatches a desperate scheme to clear his name. Kidnapping the escaped killer’s girlfriend, he arms himself with a .45 and takes off in pursuit of Vasquez–and the truth.

Once sworn to uphold the law, Marconi will have to elude it if he wants to bring this conspiracy to light. Otherwise, Keeper could lose everything: his job, his reputation–and even his life.
