The Russia Chronicles. An Underground Revolution. Five - Andrew Anzur Clement - Bog

Katya has been crowned Tsarina of all the Russias, but she can't escape her past as a drug-addicted teenager living on the streets. To repair her public image on the world stage, she embarks on her first official state visit to the European Union. Pyotr is by her side as president of the Russian Federation. But his leadership in the Kremlin is being tested by sinister forces that threaten topple their already-fragile hold on power. Zan has grown up in desperate poverty, digging through trash in Moscow's city dump. He stumbles upon a diabolical plot to kidnap and torture an innocent girl who may be Pyotr's missing daughter. As the royal family arrives in Brussels for a diplomatic showdown, Zan will make a mad dash through the most violent conflict zones in Russia's border regions, pursued by a rogue platoon of paramilitary troops. No one can be trusted, as the EU's Covert Action Service calls the Russians to a summit meeting behind the secure gates of a NATO base. The Americans mediating the talks have their own secret agenda. Tsarina Katya, President Pyotr and their gang of former street bums will need to form unlikely alliances to outwit scheming diplomats and secure their hold on power before it's too late.
