ESCAPE FROM DONETSK
is a story of love, loyalty, sacrifice, deception, betrayal, vengeance, and tons of action. CIA Paramilitary Officer Jon Smith is at his core a good and honorable man. He is also a highly trained warrior with an overly zealous desire to protect those he cares about. If that means leaving a trail of death and destruction in his wake, so be it. On this occasion, he is flying back to Poland from Dnipro, Ukraine in an Agency Black Hawk helicopter after abducting a Russian SVR officer with his CIA team when he receives a satellite phone call. His best friend's widow informs him that her daughter, Jon’s goddaughter, Sister Joan is trapped behind the lines in Russian-occupied Donetsk. She has just witnessed Chechen soldiers beat her priest to death in front of their church. Jon immediately agrees to retrieve her from the hellish war zone with the help of his loyal teammate, Angie Hawkins. How does the relatively simple rescue mission of a young nun in Russian-occupied Donetsk, Ukraine escalate in less than two days to a point where Russia is on the verge of launching a tactical nuclear strike on Ukraine’s capital? Jon’s mission is simple. The execution is not.
