Brussels, 1980. Seventeen-year-old David Jourbet watches his father die in his arms, gunned down in the rain by a faceless assassin. The CIA calls it justice. Michel Jourbet was a traitor who stole millions in diamonds from a Soviet mine. But David knows the truth: his father was no thief. For eighteen years, that truth has burned inside him, driving him to become the kind of operative who can finally uncover what really happened.
Zurich, 1998. A mysterious death leads David to a Swiss banker with secrets about his father's murder, and a conspiracy that reaches the highest levels of American power. Following a trail of blood and deception from Sofia to the frozen heart of Siberia, David discovers that his father's murder was ordered to cover up a plot that rigged the 1980 presidential election. Now the same people who killed his father have taken the woman David loves, and they're willing to let a nuclear bomb detonate on Russian soil to keep their secrets buried.
On the Trans-Siberian Railway, with a nuclear weapon counting down and thousands of innocent lives in the balance, David Jourbet faces an impossible choice: Stop the bomb and let the conspirators escape, or expose the truth and watch the world burn. In a desperate race against time, betrayal, and the ghosts of the Cold War, David will learn that some acts of revenge require the ultimate sacrifice-and that clearing his father's name may cost him everything he has left.
