Years ago, as a young CIA analyst, Ryan was tasked with investigating the death of an operative linked to suspicious banking activities in Switzerland. His relentless pursuit revealed not just financial fraud but also a KGB assassin known as Zenith, whom he could never apprehend. Now, a new threat looms with the rise of President Valeri Volodin in Russia, whose ascent is marked by deception and a dark secret.

When an old friend of the Ryans is poisoned with a radioactive substance, the investigation leads back to Russia.
