The Rogue Warrior has come to Moscow with murder and mayhem on his mind. The reason: his old friend Paul Mahon, Washington's defense attache in Russia, has been assassinated. Marcinko knows who killed him - Andrei Yudin, a godfather in the Russian Mafia - and he wants to know why. But Yudin's not talking. In fact, he's been silenced forever. The Rogue Warrior can't raise the dead, but he can uncover a cabal of Russian politicians in bed with the mob. The revelation buys him a one-way ticket to Washington, courtesy of the Russian Ministry of the Interior... and his own State Department. Marcinko connects Paul's murder to break-ins at a dozen NATO installations throughout Europe, to the infiltration of the American Embassy in Paris, and to a series of sinister and mysterious shipments to the Middle East. Masterminded by an international financier in the employ of the CIA, a devil of a deal is in the works, and it's America's safety that's for sale. It's time to play truth or consequences. The Rogue Warrior will uncover the truth - and his enemies will have hell to pay.
