Court Gentry is caught between the Russian mafia and the CIA in this latest electrifying thriller in the #1 New York Times bestselling Gray Man series.
Alex Velesky is in a world of trouble. He has the key that can unlock the truth behind a web of illicit payments the Russians have spread around the globe. The money is used to subvert governments, pay off politicians, and bankroll terrorist groups—among other things. Incredibly powerful forces will do anything to keep this particular secret from getting out.
But the only man who can put the information together and share it with the world is four thousand miles away in New York City. There’s no way a Swiss banker like Velesky can hope to stay ahead of the killers on his trail for that long.
Lucky for him, he’s got an ace up his sleeve. Zoya Zakharova—former Russian intelligence officer, former CIA agent, and the Gray Man’s current lover—is determined to get the information and its courier safely to their destination.
What she doesn’t know is that there is one particularly dangerous force standing in her path—Court Gentry. In the past, he and Zoya have always worked together, but even two people who have spent their lives in the shadows can lose themselves in the dark.
