Availability:1 of 1 At Your Library Series Title: A Mitch Rapp novel.Summary Note: "Mitch Rapp hates owing anyone a favorâespecially when itâs the worldâs most powerful crime lord. But when Damian Losa calls, Mitch is honor-bound to answer. The Syrian government appears to have created a highly addictive new narcotic that it plans to distribute throughout Europe. Itâs a major threat to Losaâs business and heâs determined to send someone to keep him on top by any means necessary. Rapp is the perfect choice for the mission. Not only does he have extensive experience operating in the Middle East, but heâs also entirely expendable. As he crosses into war-torn Syria, Rapp quickly discovers a shocking truth. The new drug isnât being produced by Damascus to prop up the governmentâs collapsing finances. Instead, it was created by Russiaâs asymmetrical warfare unit, not for profit but as a weapon against the West. With far more than Damian Losaâs interests at stake, Rapp devises a desperate plan that forces him and his team onto a battlefield where the United States is virtually powerless and allegiances shift almost hourly. Further, if Russia uncovers their plot, it will set off a confrontation between the two countries that could change the course of human history." --publisher's website.

Russia, July 17, 1918: Under direct orders from Vladimir Lenin, Bolshevik secret police force Anastasia Romanov, along with the entire imperial family, into a damp basement in Siberia where they face a merciless firing squad.

As rumors begin to circulate through European society that the youngest Romanov daughter has survived the massacre at Ekaterinburg, old enemies and new threats are awakened. The question of who this woman is and what actually happened to Anastasia creates a saga that spans fifty years and three continents.
