A Wild Justice — Craig Thomas
A NEW KIND OF WAR
An American executive in Siberia is murdered. A few days later, at a glittering Washington party, ex-CIA agent John Lock celebrates his sister Beth's birthday. By the next morning, Beth and her husband, Billy Grainger, an important player in the new Russian economy, will also have been murdered.
Driven by an overpowering desire for revenge, Lock uncovers the links between Beth's murder and that of the executive in Siberia. But, as he moves toward the heart of darkness, he finds himself forced to confront the power, corruption, and ruthlessness of the Russian mafia--his only ally being the cynical, endangered policeman, Alexei Vorontsyev.
Both men want justice--and their enemies are determined that they will pay the ultimate price for it in a world of drug smuggling, lawlessness, and the collapse into anarchy of the new Russia. For Lock and Vorontsyev alike, the Cold War has been replaced by something infinitely more dangerous.
