'Gripping, belongs to the same shelf as Gorky Park.' - Newsday. Stepan Povin, the KGB's Chief of Foreign Intelligence, is the West's most prized intelligence agent. For years he has been passing secrets from the heart of the KGB, but his position in the Lubyanka has come under threat from within. He wants out, and is seeking asylum in the West. In exchange he has a stunning piece of information to offer - the Soviets are about to capture a sophisticated American spy plane that is so crucial to America's defence she will risk nuclear war to keep its secrets safe. This disclosure is a warning of the insane bid by Kremlin hawks to hijack the American AWACS, triggering a US first strike and plunging the globe into nuclear chaos. Combining breathless high adventure and stunning insight into the Intelligence world, this can be read alone and is volume two of the trilogy and we have the companion title Nocturne for the General code 91813. 391pp, paperback reprint of the 1983 original.
