A Wintering of Evil Book Two The Pandora Affair ebok

War has come to the Zone with a bloody vengeance. Above ground, the conflict is between Jarrod McKenzie and General Petrosky. Petrosky blames McKenzie for the failure of an operation in North Viet Nam that nearly cost Petrosky his career and sent him home to Russia in disgrace. Equally at fault in Petrosky's mind is Lenya Turptz, a former Spetsnaz involved in the North Viet Nam operation that brought down Petrosky. Petrosky wants them both, captured together. However, McKenzie and Turptz have powerful allies of their own in Moscow. Identified as Cognac Man and Whiskey Man… they walk a fine and delicate line in opposing the group of shadowy, powerful men backing Petrosky. And now a new threat has arisen. A traitor inside Pandora. One very high up, privy to Pandora's secrets. At every turn, this traitor is thwarting Petrosky's plans to capture McKenzie and Turptz. What other damage this turncoat has done Petrosky can only guess at. As Petrosky turns his attentions to this internal threat, the Krailiaki strike their first blow against Pandora, ambushing and massacring a tram full of workers. And problems continue to escalate as the Krailiaki continue to hit Pandora in unexpected places. While dealing with the threat of the Krailiaki, Petrosky also wants the traitor in his organization. He has a name. The name of the shadowy figure behind much of Petrosky's problems above ground. Elijah. Petrosky sets a trap for Elijah. He wants the mysterious man taken prisoner so Petrosky can find out just who inside Pandora has betrayed him. Elijah and a large group of hired mercenaries take the bait Petrosky dangles and gather at an old riverine base once used by the KGB. It is then that Petrosky launches his attack. That is when McKenzie and his allies launch their own long-planned operation against Petrosky. As the battle at the river base escalates, nearly one hundred Krailiaki gather near-by. They are watching the puny human-things fight each other and waiting. Waiting for the Elder Caller of the Gathering to signal their own attack. When he does...the male and female Krailiak warriors swarm into the river base to kill every single human-thing they can find. Now the battle is not McKenzie's people against Petrosky's soldiers and Elijah's mercenaries. Now the battle is to survive this night.
