Mack Bolan the Executioner #269
Shifting Shadows
BROTHERS IN BLOOD
Mack Bolan teams up with his brother Johnny to leave a blood trail of chaos accross two continents, uprooting a conspiracy involving the CIA and the Russian Mafia. Frozen out of Stony Man's intelligence circles, the Bolan brothers are on their own - and possibly at war with the people they call friends.
The game of hide-and-seek with Russian crime boss Tolya Valerik has spanned a hemisphere, but time is running out and Bolan must lock and load on the key players. America has been sold out by those sworn to protect her in a blood contract for money and power.
Taking down the conspirators is the Executioner's oath to his last breath - even if the enemy turns out to be someone he once trusted with his life.
