The Cold War. A backdrop to betrayal. A playground to power. When Ronald Reagan asks covert operator and West Point graduate Atcho to execute an impossible assignment, he finds himself on a deadly mission deep in Siberia with no support. His foe is a rogue Soviet general bent on gaining control of the USSR's nuclear weaponry. At the back of Atcho's mind is that the country he is sent to save is the same Superpower that helped enslave Cuba, his beloved birthplace.Out of the gloom surrounding the murders of the brooding mystic Rasputin and the Russian royal family, emerges the evil that survived World War II. It fomented the Cold War and propelled their effects into the modern age on a global scale. Atcho must avert their horrors, yet to be imagined. Complicating his task is another tenacious operator, Sofia, stalking his mission; and, a relentless reporter, Collins, who believes Atcho to be a conspirator in an assassination conspiracy.Sofia has gone rogue, and her intentions are unclear. She appears determined to learn the nature of Atcho's mission, and be at the critical place at the crucial moment. Her actions disrupt Atcho's sensitive mission and generate an intercontinental search for her, while Collins' tenacious pursuit threatens to expose Atcho's mission before he can even start. And then, Atcho finds an unreliable ally in a KGB officer on the run. The major question between them? How can they trust each other? But, given the nature of the mission, they have no choice.Across five continents and through the halls of power of two Superpowers, Atcho pursues his mission while the security forces of a dying Soviet empire hunt him down. Constantly on his mind: can he set aside his personal feelings to help save not only his adopted country and the world, but also the hated Soviet Union?
