The Prague Reprisal

by Robert Ushy

2022 American Book Awards Adventure Book of the Year Finalist

Nine years after tragedy struck Rachel Stackwell in Prague, she hesitantly returns to the city. Now, hiding from her past as a linguistic university professor, she is thrust back into a world of chaos and intrigue. Unable to sit idly by, Rachel breaks up a kidnapping attempt of two young girls, but that is just the beginning. Following her back to America, the human trafficking cartel is determined to punish her for the interference, but they didn't quite realize what, or who they were truly unleashing.
While trying to live up to the journalist mantel of his mother, Derian Haynes has stumbled across the story of his career. An informant has leaked evidence proving bribery, corruption and sex trafficking all the way to Alan Wakefield, the President of the United States. As he digs deeper, he is thwarted by the powerful man's inner sanctum and administration until an improbable adversary becomes his biggest ally? Unsure if he can trust the source, Haynes makes a promise to uncover the truth behind the man's family's tragedy in exchange for his deposition.
When the unlikely duo find themselves pursuing the same foes, they must decide if they can really trust one another. A worldwide hunt quickly turns into a battle for survival as international assassin, mercenaries and influential governments try to prevent the exposure of a global sex market and human trafficking conspiracy run by one man, Lucas Viale, a human shadow who caters to the world's richest and elitist of clients.
