A Novella by Steve Berry
A heart-pumping short story from the New York Timesbestselling author featuring one of operative Cotton Malones earliest missions . . .

Malone is sent on a mission to a small central Asian country run by an enigmatic dictator, Yossef Sharma, whose alliance with the United States must be kept under wraps. Its not a mission Malone enjoys, since Sharma has a penchant for burning books. Things get even more interesting when Sharma connects Malone with the worlds most infamous criminal, a man who wants to surrender. Things are not always what they seem, and Malone will need Sharmas help if he plans to set things right and give the devil his due.
