Excellent story - former Soviet Union military leaders team up with the Russian Mafia to take over Russia. Russia has a new Operations Center which is the mirror image of the one in the U.S. - it is a race to see how the opposing centers get the upper hand to save Russia. A surprising partnership arises however. This was an exciting read - hard to put down.
good book!
The new President of Russia is trying to set up a democratic regime but, fellow countrymen are against it. The Op-Center goes in to help the new President in his quest, facing a similar organization amongst the Russian hardliners.
The Cold War is over. And chaos is setting in. The new President of Russia is trying to create a new democratic regime. But there are strong elements within the country that are trying to stop him: the ruthless Russian mafia, the right wing nationalists, and those nefarious forces that will do whatever it takes to return Russia to the days of the Czar. Op-Center, the newly founded but highly successful crisis management team, begins a race against the clock and against the hardliners. Their task is made even more difficult by the discovery of a Russian counterpart...but this one's controlled by those same repressive hardliners. Two rival Op-Centers, virtual mirror images of each other. But if this mirror cracks, it'll be much more than seven years bad luck.

Intelligence at its best with all the usual thrills. Good book
High tech thriller; political imperatives; powerful profile of America's defense, intelligence, and crisis management technology.
My husband read this one and says it is every bit as good as the rest of his books. This book is also posted to my bookcrossing.com bookshelf
