1995: Moscow: Year three of Boris Yeltsin's chaotic first stab at democracy sees corruption and crime join hands and run the law ragged. Andy Donnegan, a 27-year-old Bostonian, has been in Moscow as long as democracy and has had his fill of the increasingly hazardous deals he's being asked to fix for his Austrian boss in Vienna. A near-death moment as a deal goes bad convinces him it's time to quit and head back home to the USA. Out of nowhere, a wily colonel from Russia's new FSB security service shows up, telling Donnegan that he's been under tight surveillance for months; ever since his name was discovered on the body of an undercover cop. Colonel Tchasov is convinced Donnegan is set for a pivotal role in an imminent and major crime involving his boss. He's not trying to pin the murder on him; he just wants him to take the job when it gets offered. Donnegan refuses point blank. Tchasov's unperturbed; he's known all along it would take something more potent than coercion to get the young American to agree and, unfortunately for Donnegan, he'd already found it. Andy Donnegan is about to enter a dark Russian labyrinth where just staying alive would be close to a miracle.
