  A murdered model. A missing girl. A lead no one wants followed. 
  It’s the late 1990s. An FBI Special Agent is pulled from his post at the U.S. Embassy in Moscow and sent to Athens, Greece on a high-stakes mission. 
  A Russian supermodel has been brutally murdered. Her closest friend is missing. 
  The agent’s new partner is from Russia’s MVD—a sharp, young officer with elite training and no patience for American arrogance. 
  Trust is limited. Time is short. And someone is already working to shut the investigation down. 
  As the search widens, unexpected allies emerge—analysts, agents, and specialists with their own reasons for getting involved. 
  One thing is clear: 
  This isn’t just another murder. It’s the first step into something deeper—and darker. 
  NADEZHDA DIES LAST - Book Two in the Directive Seven Series. 
  An unflinching, high-stakes FBI thriller inspired by the real-life experiences of a former Special Agent. 
  When cases are too sensitive, too strange, or too explosive for official channels, they’re handed down from the Director’s office—the seventh floor of the J. Edgar Hoover Building—under a covert mandate known only as: 
  DIRECTIVE SEVEN 
  Operating without a team, without recognition, and sometimes without backup, one agent and his unlikely partners follow the threads others refuse to touch—from international conspiracies and high-level corruption to missing persons, apparitions, and secrets that were never meant to surface. 
  These are the cases that never made the news—because they were never supposed to.
