When Butterflies Die

About the Book

Colonel Kir Jerdev, a member of Russia's Elite Special Forces, has been sent with a small task force to recover twelve biological weapons from a secret laboratory hidden in the Ukraine's Carpathian Mountains. Colonel Jerdev betrays his country and his honor when he makes a deal with the Russian Mafia to sell the weapons to an Islamic terrorist group. The Russian’s only option is to transport the weapons across the Balkins to the Adriatic Sea and a waiting boat.

Blocked by a raging battle between Serbian and Muslim forces, Colonel Jerdev is forced to hide the weapons in a limestone cave deep in Serbia's Dinaric Alps before he is captured by the Serbs.

Serbian General Alexis Zogovic is about to realize his dream of wealth, power and revenge against the Americans who destroyed his beloved Serbia. All that stands in the general's way is a young CIA officer on her first assignment. For the hardened veteran of Serbia's bloody "ethnic cleansing," one young female CIA agent should not pose a problem.
