Description
Introducing the Polish master of espionage with a gripping international thriller about the final crumbling of the USSR and the dawn of Putin's reign...
October 1990. With Mikhail Gorbachev at the helm, glasnost and perestroika are reshaping the USSR, and the Cold War is drawing to an inevitable close.
From the Zapadnaya Litsa Naval Base in the far north of the Soviet Union, the most powerful submarine in the Soviet fleet - the Dmitry Donskoy, commanded by Captain Vladimir Golitsyn - sets sail. On board is a formidable nuclear arsenal capable of destabilising the global balance of power.
The situation alarms both Washington and London. The allies raise their alert levels, scrutinising every detail to uncover Moscow's true intentions. All roads lead to Helsinki. MI6 enters the high-stakes game of international espionage, dispatching their top operative, Martin, on a critical mission...
Against the dramatic backdrop of the Soviet Union's collapse, a fierce battle unfolds - a clash that will shape the rise of a new empire and lay the foundations for Putin's Russia.
