In the 1980s the Cold War was heating up. NATO decided to counter the Soviet buildup of SS-20 missiles with the deployment of American Cruise Missiles to RAF Greenham Common Air Base, UK.

In this stunning debut historical thriller by WF Whitson, the KGB sends Nikolai Sokolov, a cunning Soviet spy, who uses sleeper agents and others to deploy dirty bombs in an attempt to weaken NATO’s resolve.But on the watch is Lieutenant Colonel Wes Forrest, a hard-nosed, dedicated USAF officer, ordered by the Pentagon to be on the watch for Soviet activity. Once the threat is identified, Forrest joins forces with MI5, and the confrontations become violent and personal.
