Precision Kill

About the Book

A fast-paced international spy thriller, Precision Kill focuses on the experiences of Alexander “Sasha” Zukov, a young Russian colonel stationed in Afghanistan during his country’s war with the Afghans in the mid-1980s. As the story unfolds, the action shifts from Afghanistan to Russia to the U.S., where Zukov is assigned to a joint mission between his own country and an unusual partner—the United States. After being wounded in Kabul, Sasha is forced to take an administrative job in intelligence in Moscow. He could never have foreseen working with American CIA agents to apprehend a shrewd, murderous traitor threatening both the U.S. and Russian space programs. But neither could he have imagined at the outset of the war that his father would be killed so brutally, that he would be betrayed by a lifelong friend, or that he would fall in love with a beautiful Afghan girl from the Hazara tribe.
