Description
The Russian President intends to regain Russia's former empire, whatever the cost. To do so, he needs to reduce Russia's reliance on the West by shifting his country's vast energy resources to the East. When a planned pipeline through Turkmenistan and Afghanistan threatens the stability of the region, he calls on independent troubleshooter, Alex Leksin, to bring it back on course. Failure would be catastrophic, extending the conflict raging in the Middle East inside Russia's borders.
Leksin's investigation takes him from Moscow to one of the world's most sinister countries right at the heart of Central Asia. Initially, his enquiries reveal nothing to cause alarm. Yet, wherever Leksin goes, someone tries to kill him; people who may be able to help him are assassinated; and information turns to misinformation. And when at last he discovers the truth, he is no longer sure whom he can trust.
"An up-to-the-minute compelling thriller that combines political sophistication with traditional gore and glory." - Ray Snoddy, former media editor of The Times and Financial Times and BBC presenter
"This a terrific thriller beautifully paced as it gets faster and more furious in the final third of the book. I give it five stars." - Temple Emmet Williams, Former Editor, The Reader's Digest
