The most influential men in Russia, incluing the country's corrupt head of state, have gathered in a Moscow cemetery to bury a fallen comrade. Before the ceremony has concluded, however, blood will stain the snow-covered ground and Russia's ultimate power will have fallen into the hands of a man of insane ambition. U.S. President Madeline Turner has already weathered global crises, treachery, and insurrection in her own cabinet during the first months of her administration, and it has made her a stronger, more able leader. But her effectiveness will be tested to its limits now that the balance of power has shifted dangerously and dramatically in Europe. Closer to home, a small personal emergency has brought a one-time hero and Air Force legend into her life. Matt Pontowski, who will become the proud, capable yet lonely and beleaguered Commander-in-Chiefs confidant, friend, and more. Meanwhile, a fearsome, re-emergent Russian bear is on a rampage. Soon a brazen act of aggression has locked a determined Maddy Turner into a war of wits and weaponry with the fearless cabal of drug runners and murderers who now rule. A war that could reshape the face of the world and the future of freedom, and decide the fate of the President herself; whether she lives or dies.
