Description
Ambitious lawyer Christopher Dunney was not in Cold War Moscow looking for a cause. A last-minute substitute, Christopher was in Moscow to seal a fast food deal for the 1980 Moscow Olympics Games. It was going to be his big break at the firm, a partnership riding on his performance. Chistopher wasn't the kind of guy to fret about Russia's Jewish dissidents or their precious human rights. He had career-building on his mind, nothing else. He did not want anything or, especially, anyone getting in his way. Until he wanted Elizaveta Krylenkev. Elizaveta was the beautiful activist, a high-profile dissident who had expected the committed American attorney whom Christopher had replaced. Her disappointment with cynical Christopher did not last long, but Elizaveta had to parlay their mutual attraction into the most dangerous of actions. With a scrupulous Russian cop manipulating every second move, Christopher learned that Elizaveta had set him up to mule the most explosive piece of evidence of the decade. A tape that would implode the Soviet's pending show trial of Russia's top dissident. The KGB would stop at nothing to get that evidence back. Christopher Dunney was nobody's hero, yet, there he was, thinking about risking his career, his freedom and, yes, his life for... Being played pissed Christoper off. That was his second biggest weakness. Damn it. Time to run.
