Mitch Rapp
teams up with the former Russian version of himself, Grisha Avarov to save the
world from WWIII. The Russian president,
Maxium Krupin develops an inoperable brain tumor and invades Latvia which
causes a NATO mobilization. The aggression
is designed as a ‘wag the dog’ style cover while Krupin secretly receives
medical treatment. But the war quickly escalates
and the use of nuclear weapons is pondered.
CIA director Irene Kennedy finds out about Krupin’s condition and motive
and sends Rapp and Avarov to find and ‘neutralize’ Krupin before he pushes the
red button. Scary stuff and a little too
close for comfort in our modern world.
