Description
Nothing curdles the blood of an intelligence officer more than the simple word mole. Its utterance by a defecting Czech spy has sent the entire Israeli intelligence community reeling. And so Jerusalem's spymasters have no choice but to summon top military intelligence agent Major Eytan Eckstein and his lumbering, brilliant partner Lieutenant Colonel Benni Baum, sending them into Africa and a wilderness of mirrors, where no one is safe and nothing is as it seems to be.Jan Krumlov, a dashing counterintelligence expert from Prague, claims to know the identity of a traitor hidden deep within an ultrasecret Israeli nuclear weapons program. But Krumlov is on the run, being hunted by assassins, and he will not surrender his prize unless he is rescued from his mountain lair in the wilds of Ethiopia. Eckstein and Baum know that they have already stretched their luck too thin and should in fact be retiring from "the Game," yet the fugitive Czech must be spirited back to friendly territory. For if he dies, his secret dies with him. Thus begins "Operation Sorcerer," but what should be a simple covert assignment turns more deadly by the hour. Krumlov is hiding behind a bodyguard of ruthless mercenaries, a beautiful French nurse with a tragic past, and a throng of starving Ethiopian orphans. ISBN:9780688141219
