Book description
In the aftermath of an apparent terrorist attack, the headquarters
of an American oil company haemorrhages chemical-pink smoke into the
Moscow smog. A Russian army captain carrying a priceless Fabergé egg
and digital evidence of horrific wartime atrocities is murdered and
relieved of both these prizes. And in the snowy mountains of southern
Russia, a terrorist named Abreg-who once held Volk captive in a
Chechen mud pit-hatches a plan to lure him back into his grasp. Shadow
of the Wolf finds covert agent Colonel Alexei Volkovoy grieving for
his lost love, Valya, and struggling to stay afloat in a world of
political intrigue and underground plots. But when he takes out his
anger on the wrong man, he gains a powerful enemy in the highest
reaches of the Kremlin...
