In a deadly game of international espionage, Michael Gresham races to expose a conspiracy that threatens America's energy security. When secrets are being sold to the Russians, and the prize is control of American oil fields, Gresham knows he's up against corruption on a global scale. Pitted against a Russian businessman and a group of U.S. attorneys he suspects are in the Kremlin's pocket, the savvy lawyer creates a shadow law firm to trap the document sellers. But the stakes are raised when the FBI delivers chilling news: the Russians have put a contract on Gresham's head, and a lethal assassin named Nadia Karamov is closing in. Trained by the KGB/FSB to be a deadly manhunter, Karamov is a formidable adversary. As the assassin draws near, Gresham must work quickly to uncover the spies within the Gray law firm before it's too late. In a pulse-pounding race against time, he'll need all his wits and resources to stay one step ahead of his enemies and protect America's interests. Can Gresham outwit his foes and expose the traitors, or will he become the hunted in this dangerous game of cat and mouse?________________________________________________________________A page-turning legal thriller from three-million-selling John Ellsworth________________________________________________________________What they said about the Michael Gresham thrillers:5.0 out of 5 stars  - I didn’t want this book to end. 5.0 out of 5 stars - Wow!
