The Asset

by Saul Herzog

"Montana, USA. When Lance Spector quit the CIA, he swore he was out for good. One more government lie and he would go off the deep end. They could find someone else to do their dirty work. As far as he was concerned, Washington, Langley, the Pentagon could all go to hell. Yekaterinburg, Russia . A secret Russian expedition returns with a devastating new pathogen, harvested from the frozen corpses of mammoths. It's the biological super-weapon they've been looking for, an apocalypse-level pathogen, a virus more deadly than anything ever to come from a Russian lab. Something that will stop NATO and the Americans in their tracks. A Biological Chernobyl. Washington DC, USA. A mysterious vial, sealed in a titanium case, arrives at CIA headquarters. They have no idea who sent it, but it comes with a note. 'I will only speak to Lance Spector.'"--Amazon.
