From the New York Times bestselling author and MWA Grandmaster Max Allan Collins and the iconic master of noir Mickey Spillane comes the next book in the Mike Hammer series.

Hammer accompanies a politician to Moscow, where he is arrested by the KGB and imprisoned. He quickly escapes, but back in the States, the government is none too happy. Russia demands his return to stand charges, and various government agencies are following him. A question dogs Hammer: Why does Russia want him back, and why was sent to Russia with the senator in the first place?
