The Cold War's boiling over. Global tensions are near the breaking point. So, what's the perfect assignment for a super-spy who hasn't slept since the Korean conflict? A fun-filled trip to the Montreal World's Fair! The adorable little girl he's escorting - who, under different circumstances, would be sitting on the Lithuanian throne - can hardly contain her excitement, but it isn't all playtime for Evan Tanner.

Karlis, Tanner's comrade in the Latvian Army in Exile, is pining for his true love, a gymnast who can't get out of the Soviet Union. So Tanner sneaks through a hole in the Iron Curtain, meets the child he unwittingly fathered on an earlier trip to Macedonia, smuggles a dissident intellectual out of Yugoslavia, adds to his retinue a six-year-old Lithuanian girl, who'd be the rightful heir to the Lithuanian throne if there ever were one, and winds up not with one Latvian gymnast but with a whole company of them.

It's a jungle out there. Literally. At least for Evan Tanner, an eternally sleepless, sometime superspy, who finds himself in Africa on the trail of the AWOL ruler of tiny Modonoland. It seems the petty despot's gone missing, and he's taken the state treasury along with him. No stranger to impossible missions and international peril, Tanner's been in over his head before. This time, however, he's in imminent danger of being buried alive. And it all has to do with the CIA, white supremacists, moderate revolutionaries...and a blond jungle bombshell named (no joke!) Sheena.

Pulitzer Prize-winning best-selling novelist Blake Tanner, former Spec Ops and longtime CIA, travels to Egypt, along with his team, to deliver a message to the Egyptian president of an assassination plot under the guise of an interview for the Associated Press. Blake and his team are soon caught up in a conspiracy that extends far beyond the briefing intel. Split up and on their own, Special Agent in Charge Maren Dey must make the most difficult decisions of her career, if she is to survive and keep her team alive.

Ever since a shred of shrapnel did a number on his brain's sleep center, Even Tanner has been awake 24/7. This gives him more time than your average underachiever. Time to learn the world's languages (he's fluent in Basque, but has trouble with Chinese). Time to embrace the world's lost causes and irredentist movements (The Flat Earth Society, the League for the Restoration of Cilician Armenia, the Society of the Left Hand). Time to write term papers theses for students with more money than knowledge.

Traitors Within follows Michael Stone, a former Delta Force operator-turned-CIA spy as he uncovers a plot within our own government to smuggle dangerous extremists into the homeland. As Stone begins to unravel this web of secrets that spans multiple countries, will he be able to prevent the horrific acts of terrorism being planned? Is he already too late? Will this covert puppet master be able to pull off the next 9/11-style attack and start the next world war?
