A fast-paced international political thriller set in a fictitious former Soviet state, in which a new president has to fight for the survival of his family and his nation, and in which nothing and no one is what they seem.
Michelle is about to go on vacation with her husband, Daniel, and their children, when they learn that Daniel’s twin brother has tragically died. They must return to Dan’s homeland of Kazichia to attend the funeral. Once there, Daniel is pressured into staying—his late brother was the nation’s president, and now Daniel is his successor. Michelle wants to get back to Amsterdam as soon as possible, but that proves to be no easy task: a rebel leader is trying to unite the people in an uprising against the regime. No one knows who the leader is or how he gets his resources, but he has a growing rebel army behind him and is carrying out attacks.
As Russian intelligence and the CIA meddle in the conflict, and Michelle does everything she can to get her family home safely, Daniel battles the elusive rebel known as the Man with a Thousand Faces.
Fans of John le Carré, Ian Fleming, John Grisham, and Lee Child will be captivated by this propulsive thriller.
