description: 1982. Russia faces famine. The Soviets are forced to pin their hopes for survival on the U.S. But as the KGB and the CIA watch in horror, the rescue of a Ukrainian "freedom fighter" from the Black Sea unleashes savagery that endangers peace - and plunges leaders from Washington to Moscow into a web of overwhelming intrigue, terror and suspense. Only two lovers can save the world from nuclear destruction. Yet every way out means certain death. And the countdown has already begun.
