CIA director John Stanton believes Andrew Wiley is the only person with even a remote chance to thwart a diabolical plot to decapitate the leadership of the United States... but first, he must charge Wiley with treason.
Forced underground by the trumped-up espionage charge, Wiley relies on his wits and his unique skills and experience to elude the FBI, while racing against the clock to find his old enemy, brilliant ex-KGB agent Alexander Volkov, now a freelance agent for Iran, before the Russian can execute his diabolical attack.
With time running out, desperate and alone in his quest, Wiley must seek help from Maria Sanchez, a beautiful and ambitious Miami Herald reporter who holds a grudge against him. Can he trust her, or will she play him for a career-making headline?
Alternating between Wiley's and Volkov's viewpoints, The Hydra Affair introduces a complex yet likeable protagonist, and a mesmerizing villain, who, despite his amorality and evil intent, displays flashes of humanity.
Crafted with high-octane action, thoughtful character development, and splashes of humor, this 2010 Colorado Gold Writing Contest finalist is a page-turner that both men and women will enjoy.
