Black Amber

Russia's grip brings Europe one cyberattack away from darkness.

Russian President Vera Koslova is determined to restore her nation's superpower status by wielding its greatest weapon: oil and gas. Her new subsea pipeline promises to rescue Europe from its worst energy crisis in decades. But for most, dependence on Moscow feels as dangerous as it is necessary.

Then the gas stops flowing. Cyberterrorism is blamed. Koslova's enemies claim she orchestrated the shutdown to prove her dominance.

Investigating the blackout, Lithuanian journalist Lena Markus of Baltic Watch uncovers a shocking truth: the sabotage was engineered far closer to home. Exposing it could provoke Russian retaliation, even a war. Staying silent could plunge Europe into darkness.

When power fails, chaos rules.
