13. She Believes

Complete story — includes the ending

Ryan discovers that Auggie and his bodyguard Pete are missing, and the CIA trace them to Baltimore harbor, where they find Pete dead and determine that Auggie has been taken away on a ship. Olga tells Annie that she is an FSB agent seeking private revenge on Belenko, who killed her husband. She suggests that they cooperate to kill him, but once Annie is aware of Auggie's plight she insists that they capture him instead. They are able to capture and begin torturing him, and learn that Auggie is still alive, but his men follow a tracking device in his mouth and soon free him; Olga is killed. Calder and Joan grab Mashkov, the Russian embassy officer, off the street and threaten to expose him as having given secrets to Sydney unless he gives them all the FSB files on Belenko. They learn that Belenko is not actually from Georgia but from Chechnya, where Auggie's unit once served. Auggie is taken to Chechnya and brought before Belenko, who says Auggie has something he wants. Ryan and Annie leave together to attempt to rescue him, with a promise of the CIA's full backing from Calder and Joan.
