Russian Virgin is Missing

They took his wife. They didn't know they were waking a ghost.

Joel Greenberg was a man who had given up on life. A short, plump loan officer with a quiet suburban routine, he had buried his past-and the man he used to be-so deep that even he started to forget. Then he met Mila. For one year, she was his miracle.

But Mila was hiding a nightmare. A runaway from a brutal Russian pimp, she thought she'd found safety in Joel's arms. The Russians found her first.

They invaded. They took her. They left Joel for dead.

They saw a mild-mannered accountant and didn't think twice. They were right about one thing: that man is dead. What they resurrected is worse.

Joel was once the top assassin for Israel's Unit 669, a ghost known only as "The Fat Man." He's not a hero. He's a reckoning. And he's going to burn their entire world to the ground to save the only person who ever gave his back.

But as he hunts through the Russian underworld of New York City-the sweatshops of the garment district, the neon-lit streets of Brighton Beach-Joel will discover that Mila isn't just his wife. She's a survivor who has been fighting her own war for years.

And when they finally reunite, the Russians will learn a terrifying truth: a man with nothing left to lose is the most dangerous weapon of all.
