Bratva, the Russian mob operating out of Brighton Beach, NY, seeks revenge for the loss of their chieftain, anonymously slain by a sniper’s single shot to the head. His son, the young Belov, is the newly installed Bratva Chieftain, and seeks to kill the person, who he believes, orchestrated his dad’s execution: retired Secret Service Director Larry Cassell. Cassell, and his family, are in clear and present danger, but don’t know it. Belov orders his operatives to kidnap Cassell’s daughter from a university sponsored archeological “dig” in Guatemala; and his son, from the United States Naval Academy. He intends to use them to draw Director Cassell into a death trap. Thrust back into the mix are Coast Guard Intelligence Captain Will Strain and his wife, Carly, the newly installed Agent- in-Charge of the Secret Service’s Miami Office. Both survived Bratva’s previous operation to leverage an international hostage exchange to gain the release the mob’s global super-hacker, Max, from federal custody. The Strains, threatened by the Bratva, are now to be collateral damage; part of Bratva’s plan to kill Director Cassell. This does not go well. Revenge is sweet, but for whom?
