Synopsis
At an international conference in Prague, Lt. Col. Jon Smith, an Army research doctor specializing in infectious diseases and secretly an agent attached to Covert-One, is contacted by a Russian colleague, Dr. Valentine Petrenko. Petrenko is concerned about a small cluster of mysterious deaths in Moscow and about the Russian government's refusal to release publicly any information or data on the outbreak. When the two meet, they are attacked by a group of mysterious men and Petrenko is killed, his notes and medical samples are lost, and Smith barely escapes with his life.
At the same time, a series of government officials around the world are coming down with a mysterious, fast-acting virus with a 100% fatality rate. These deaths are somehow related to the increasing militarism from the new Russian government, headed by the autocratic and ambitious President Victor Dudarev. With few clues and precious little time, Smith and Covert-One must unravel this mysterious plot and find the mysterious figure who stands at the center of it all…

From AudioFile
Sixth in the Covert One series, this offering resurrects Russian hardliners and pits them against U.S. intelligence. There's a new biological weapon, named Hydra, whose sophistication is its ability to target specific individuals through their DNA. The delivery is simple, the end result--death. The setting is Moscow, but the action spans the globe. Erik Bergmann narrates this thriller with a calm, no-nonsense tone. He portrays Lieutenant Colonel Jon Smith, specialist in infectious diseases and a Covert One operative, as skillful and deliberate. He also slips into thick Russian accents, then back to American slang with seamless ease, and ratchets up the tension with staccato delivery in tense situations. This is a must for Ludlum fans.
