Kolya Petrov

American operative Kolya Petrov is tracking Mihai Cuza, a direct descendant of Vlad the Impaler. Kolya suspects him of planning meltdowns of nuclear power plants around the world, but every time Kolya gets close, a member of his teamdies in agony. Margaret Bradford, the head of Kolya's agency, seizes upon a devious plan to place a "Trojan horse"-a digital virus-on Cuza's computer. But for the plan to succeed, she must betray one of her own agents. Margaret chooses Kolya Petrov-a Russian-Jewish immigrant with no family-for the honor. Kolya is initially unaware that he's been set up for kidnapping and torture. When he realizes the truth, he must choose between stopping a plot that could kill thousands, and protecting his own life and the life of the woman he loves.

The road to true love never runs smooth - especially for spies. Kolya Petrov, a covert agent for American intelligence, and Alexandria Feinstein, a brilliant attorney, are just weeks from exchanging vows when Alex's efforts to help Yael, a childhood friend, recover her baby expose a terrorist plot by a sovereign nation cult to overthrow the government. Tensions escalate as Kolya exploits Alex's connection - but after Kolya's undercover identity is blown, Kolya and Alex find themselves in the crosshairs of the cult's dangerously unhinged leader, a rogue former CIA officer. Caught in a high-stakes game of betrayal, espionage, and survival, Kolya and Alex must fight to protect each other-and the country-before time runs out.
