Connor Fitzgerald has spent twenty-eight years serving his country in a secret life unknown to those closest to him. A decorated veteran and devoted family man, he is also one of the CIA's most effective operatives, accustomed to dangerous assignments and absolute discretion. With retirement approaching, he discovers that his greatest threat comes from inside the organisation: director Helen Dexter is determined to eliminate him. Meanwhile, an aggressive new Russian president raises the prospect of confrontation between the superpowers, drawing Fitzgerald into a web of political calculation and betrayal. Jeffrey Archer's international thriller moves between Washington's centres of power and the Russian criminal world, as professional skill becomes Fitzgerald's only defence against people who know precisely how he works.
