Produktbeschreibung
Two priceless paintings. Two million euros. A civil war. What could go wrong? The DeWitt Agency assigned disgraced ex-cop Carson a simple job: carry two briefcases of cash to swap for two artworks stolen from a German museum. Except nothing's simple in the Donbass, the breakaway Ukrainian region overrun by militias, warlords, and bandits. After a brutal zrada - betrayal - Carson finds herself alone and hunted forty miles behind the front lines with half the money, one of the paintings, and a huge target hung on her back. The militia behind the exchange thinks she blew up their deal and wants the money and her hide. Her co-workers were in on the double-cross. And the Agency can't send help into the hottest war in Europe. Carson's never been one to wait to be rescued. She hires Galina - a tough local with a harrowing past and a taste for revenge - to help her cut through every checkpoint, freelance army, crooked cop, and firefight between her and the West. But the road to safety is long and poorly paved. A vengeful militia commander, a Russian special-forces operator with an agenda, and her own ex-colleagues have Carson in their crosshairs. Carson's life is now worth less than a suitcase of money or paint on a plank...but if they want to take it from her, she's going to make them pay.
