Kings Gambit Accepted — Ian Tregillis

Sasha plays a pawn sacrifice, with one of his own agents as the unwilling pawn, in this week's gripping episode of The Witch Who Came in from the Cold, Serial Box's suspenseful alternate Cold War series that gives cloak-and-dagger intrigue a supernatural twist.

 

Maksim Sokolov is stashed in a CIA safe house. But how safe is it, really, with Tanya and Nadia hot on the trail? To say nothing of a mysterious Flame Construct stalking the streets of Prague. Now, as Dom and Josh prepare for the final stage of Operation ANCHISES, disturbing rumors about Gabe will come to light . . . and Tanya will face a crisis of faith.

 

This episode, brought to you by Ian Tregellis, features a plot worthy of a ninja chess master.
