The Taliban leadership is divided. After almost two decades of war, deep divisions exist within the executive Consultative Council on how to proceed with their jihad against the Afghan Government and the West. Frustrated by the politics and inaction of the Council, the brother of the Taliban's original founder and one of the Council's most conservative clerics decides to take matters into his own hands. Partnering with old colleagues from the Soviet-Afghan War who now hold senior positions within the Afghanistan Government and American defense industry, the three conspirators set the wheels in motion to unleash an insidious attack upon Europe and the United States.
Enter Mikhail Nazarov, an ex-Afghan Special Forces Commando who has worked hard to recuperate from his tour of duty and build a new life as the Security Director for an Afghan Provincial Governor. Assigned to investigate the brutal murders of three British and American soldiers, Mikhail is stunned to recognize the American. Teaming up with the British Secret Intelligence Service on the investigation, Mikhail uncovers a deadly plot to distribute a lethal strain of drugs throughout the West. Battling a shadowy force from Afghanistan to the United States and on to Eastern Europe, Mikhail leads the fight while also confronting a powerful adversary from his past.
The Unaccounted offers an unusual look at the inner workings of the Taliban leadership as well as a compelling story line about betrayal, greed and power. Full of intrigue and global in scope, The Unaccounted is a fast moving, complex thriller that is timely and thought provoking.
