A gripping cold war thriller follows an American submariner on a mission to infiltrate the inner circle of the Russian Intelligence Service. Lieutenant Robert McMann, an atomic submarine weapons officer is asked to volunteer to take on an extremely dangerous mission allowing himself to be abducted by agents of the Russian KGB and military.

The objective is to find out how American military personnel are being turned or blackmailed to provide information on highly classified American weaponry and top-secret equipment.

Before entering that Saturday meeting, Rob shares an elevator with a striking woman accompanied by her two-and-a-half-year-old daughter. On that ride to the fourth floor, Rob is more than taken back by Gwen and her daughter. As the doors of the elevator opened, Gwen steps forward into the hall, Rob makes a split-second decision to meet Gwen later so that they could get to know each better over coffee. Gwen, widowed after her husband, a naval aviator, was killed in a fiery aircraft accident, accepts an invitation from a stranger who is paying attention to her daughter, Daphne. She is struck by how Daphne has never taken to a strange man like this before and wonders what it is about him that affects her so deeply. Similarly, Gwen finds herself intrigued and wondering the same thing. This fascinating tale will keep you guessing where it's going and will be very hard to put down.
