The Siberian Legacy is the compelling story of remarkable strangers who become linked through their search for justice and redemption.
William Benn, a wealthy investor whose life is devastated when his wife and children are murdered near a remote Aegean Island. Unable to cope with his failure to protect his loved ones, he seeks anonymity and self-destruction in contemporary Moscow.
Mikhail Petrov, a deep-cover agent with Osiris, a special ops unit responsible for fighting Russia's international crime syndicates. When Osiris zeros in on a Franco-Russian smuggling ring they are lured into a trap and wiped out, except for Petrov. Upon returning to Moscow to find out why they were betrayed, his son is killed in a bungled kidnap attempt, and he is forced into hiding to survive.
An Orthodox priest, engaged in his own secret battle for justice, brings the millionaire and rogue agent together. Benn and Petrov form an unsteady alliance, and using Benn's resources and Petrov's guile, they set out to find those responsible for the devastation of their lives.
Petrov single-mindedly sacrifices everything and everyone to bring retribution to the corrupt officials who betrayed his team and killed his son. In so doing, he rouses many adversaries, including criminals aligned with the Russian intelligence apparatus and assassins under contract to the Pakistani Inter-Agency Intelligence Service (ISI).
As events unfold, Benn finds reason to believe that his son may have survived the Aegean attack and, incredibly, may still be alive. However, he is not a trained investigator and believes that Petrov's help is vital to discovering what really happened to his family, and why.
Initially, Petrov stays ruthlessly focused on his own objectives. In time though, he has a change of heart, and the two men begin working together to unravel the conspiracies, uncover the truth, and retaliate for the treachery.
Petrov and Benn are deeply affected by the unpredictable forces they set in motion, the challenges they face, and the women they encounter. In an unusual twist, each man fulfills the destiny that seemed pre-ordained for the other.
The Siberian Legacy is as timely as today's headlines, yet steeped in the shadows of history. It is a fast paced story of international intrigue, with broad scope and plenty of hard turns. The Siberian Legacy will appeal to anyone who enjoys reading spirited accounts of foreign intelligence matters, transnational crime and global conspiracies.
