Death in the Kremlin - Simon E. J.

As the world teeters on the edge of destruction, Vladimir Putin has one goal in mind: to achieve immortality and control over every nation's power grid, defenses, and nuclear missiles. And he'll stop at nothing to get it.

Alex Nicholas, the first man to successfully transfer his consciousness into an AI duplicate, has been living in the cloud since his murder three years ago. The only person who knows about Alex's AI existence is his younger brother, Michael-or so the brothers think.

But Vladimir Putin has found out about Alex, and Alex's source codes are just what he needs to achieve his goal. Putin will do whatever it takes to obtain the codes, even if it means holding Michael hostage.

With the fate of the world hanging in the balance, the Nicholas brothers don't seem to have any options than to give Putin what he wants, or die. But with unexpected allies and a daring plan, Alex and Michael may just have a chance to stop Putin's mad quest for power-and survive.

For fans of thrillers and high-stakes action, Death in the Kremlin is a must-read. If you enjoyed The President is Missing by Bill Clinton and James Patterson, you'll love this heart-pounding tale of power, betrayal, and the ultimate battle for control.
