Murder . . . Conspiracy . . . International Intrigue . . . The Russian Mafia . . . And billions of dollars in diamonds on the streets of New York City.

After successfully completing her inaugural undercover operation with the United States Justice Department, former Russian SVR Captain Anastasia “Anya” Burinkova sets a plan in motion to not only escape the facility where she’s being held, but also to completely escape the Justice Department.

But escaping isn’t easy, even for one of the world’s deadliest—and most beautiful—assassins.

With more diamonds in one city block than anywhere else on Earth, New York City’s Diamond District is impossible to resist for Russian Mafia kingpin Viktor Volkov and his terrifyingly brilliant partner. Combining futuristic technology with millions of years of natural history, the organization is poised to tear the heart out of the American diamond industry until the DOJ unleashes their newest and deadliest weapon on the streets of the Big Apple.

Climb aboard this white-knuckle thrill ride as Cap Daniels takes you deep inside the ruthless world of the modern diamond trade, with Anya and Special Agent Gwynn Davis, as they pull out every weapon in their arsenal to defeat an old enemy with new ideas.

About the author

Cap Daniels

71 books232 followers
Creator of The Chase Fulton Novels series and The Avenging Angel - Seven Deadly Sins Series, Cap Daniels is a former sailing charter captain, scuba and sailing instructor, pilot, Air Force veteran, and civil servant of the U.S. Department of Defense. Raised far from the ocean in rural East Tennessee, his early infatuation with salt water was sparked by the fascinating, and sometimes true, sea stories told by his father, a retired Navy chief petty officer. Those stories of adventure on the high seas sent Cap in search of adventure of his own, which eventually landed him on Florida’s Gulf Coast where he and his wife Melissa spend as much time as possible on, in, and under the waters of the Emerald Coast.

With a headful of larger-than-life characters and their thrilling exploits, Cap pours his love of adventure and passion for the ocean onto the pages of his action adventure series, The Chase Fulton Novels and his new series Avenging Angel - Seven Deadly Sins.

Inspired by the likes of John D. Macdonald’s Travis McGee, Randy Wayne White’s Doc Ford, and Wayne Stinnett’s Jesse McDermitt, Cap creates thrilling tales of action and adventure set throughout the Caribbean and coastal Florida and Georgia by intertwining nautical adventure with international espionage. Cap’s Chase Fulton Novels series promises to keep readers on the edge of their seats, trying to guess what new danger or adventure lies just around the corner.

The Avenging Angel - Seven Deadly Sins series is a spin-off starring the most controversial and intriguing character from the Chase Fulton Novels. After defecting to the United States, Anastasia "Anya" Burinkova, a former Russian SVR assassin and intelligence operative puts her lethal skill set into action against the powerful Russian Mafia. In this gritty, organized-crime thriller series, Cap Daniels takes his readers into the dark underworld of the Russian Mafia weaving actual events into fiction to leave the reader's heart pounding and their fingers itching to turn the page.

Yes, Mr Daniels, you pulled it off!

When I started reading #1 The Russians Pride, I just knew I wouldn't like a spin-off from the Chase Fulton series, but I was wrong about that! This second book of the Angel series further affirms it. Anya is a force to be reckoned with, whether by the bad guys or her handlers. She knows just how to handle and manipulate situations and people to get her 'job' done. I'm happy that she has been able to let her real team, the Chase Fulton team, know that she's alive and kicking! But will she ever feel really free?

Loved it!

Once again you were successful in your goal of entertaining! I loved to see a softer, more human side of Anya. I loved the explanation of when to use were rather than was! I learned this grammar rule in 7th grade English...taught by my mother! I sat on the edge of my seat as the plot thickened throughout the book. I was happy that she let Mongo and therefore the team know she was safe. I can hardly wait until December for the next Anya book!
Is there another Chase book in the works?
Keep the stories coming!!

The Russian's Creed: Avenging Angel - Seven Deadly Sins Book #2
"Anya" is at it again, trying to win her freedom from the DOJ. The DOJ has her in the "Big Apple" to capture another Russian "bad Guy". Cap doesn't disappoint with his ability to jump-start #2 in the series with fast action, well-developed characters, and chapters that move you smoothly through this roller coaster ride to a slam-bang finish!

Anya is at it again in another fast paced action adventure which probes even deeper into what makes her tick. Her skills, her loyalties, her desires. She is a complicated and fascinating character. If you liked the The Russian’s Pride, (which you should read first), you’ll like this one even more.

Any a is amazing!

Mr. Daniels has an amazing ability to create stand alone stories using characters from other series. The characters in this series remain true to the original creation and yet continue to grow with each adventure! Any a is using her talents to do the work of the Justice Department, and remains true to herself! Great and fast read!

Another “Great” read

I realize this is only the second in the series, but both books have been excellent. I really enjoyed reading them both as well as Cap Daniels series on Chase Fulton, another excellent series you would enjoy reading if you haven’t already read them. Enjoy your reading people. Enjoy Cap Daniels!!

Great addition!

While I normally don't like spinoff books because they leave out how the new characters came to be, this book brought both series together in just the right portion. Now Blind Chase makes more sense as we know where Irina and little Anya came from. I look forward to both series' next books.

Ayna's story is every bit as good as Chase Fulton''s

The KGB/NKVD operative Anya Burnakova is possibly the most dangerous woman in the world. Her deadly skills with a knife and her equaly proficient skills in bed make no man safe.

In this wonderful book, your yearning for more stories in the Cap Daniels authored series is brought to life.

A Trip To NYC, The Russian Mob, and Diamonds,

Agent White's female Dynamic Duo have a new assignment. But will.they be able to concentrate on the task at hand with such high end 5 course meals at New York's finest restaurants, shopping sprees for dresses only seen on models in magazines at the most exclusive stores in the Big Apple? A girl sure could get use to living such a lavish lifestyle with her bestie! What's a girl to do?

I'm going to review books 12 - 17 the same.

WOW these books are outstanding! Chase builds a team, and they do the seemingly impossible.
Interspersed into these, are a few books about one of the characters that slips out of this team for a bit. (This is one of those books)

Absolutely worth reading these!

This second installment of the Seven Deadly Sins series has raised the bar that was already pretty high from book one! I enjoy the continuing development and personality of Anya. Very creative plot line that kept me from putting the book down! Can't wait for the next one.

Fun Reading but uninspired

I enjoyed the continuing saga of "Anya" but the storyline and especially the ending were shallow and left me wanting! Lacked any suspense I might of anticipated! I probably "over-starred" it because I love your Chase books.

Rapidly becoming my favorite author in the Cussler vein

Remember when Ziva left NCIS? Still worth watching but something was missing? THIS is how it should have been done. Bravo! Now, time to get busy reading the next one!

Excellent 2

Thought first one was great, but this one is greater and better than the first one. Damn Cap you can write. I've read all the Chase books, but I really think these are better; on to number 3!

It was fairly good until near the end

It seemed to finish rather abruptly in about two paragraphs. The story line was also a bit light of meaningful dialogue.

Another great read by Cap Daniels. Plenty of twists and turns. I have to say when Skipper entered the scene, it had me laughing. Great job Cap. Pre-ordered the next book.
