description: The festivity of St. Patrick's Day explodes into a nightmare of bloody violence when an extremist offshoot of the IRA takes New York City by siege. They've kidnapped four of the city's most prominent citizens and are threatening to end their lives -- and completely demolish the beautiful and sacred St. Patrick's Cathedral unless their fanatical demands are met. Now the hostages-and the world -- must wait painstakingly for dawn to learn their fate...Something very strange -- and sinister -- is going on in the Russian woods at Borodino. In a place called Mrs. Ivanova's Charm School, young KGB agents are being taught by American POWs how to be model citizens of the USA. The Soviet goal -- to infiltrate the United States undetected. When an unsuspecting American tourist stumbles upon this secret, he sets in motion a CIA investigation that will reveal horrifying police state savagery and superpower treachery.Sixteen years later, someone has broken his word of honor...and the comfortable, secure, and ordered life of ex-Lieutenant Ben Tyson suddenly comes crashing down around him. The good, honest, family man and brilliant corporate executive may now lose his job, his home, and friendships of a lifetime to the revelation of this long-ago moment of horror. Must he -- can he -- break his vow of silence and explain what really happened on that fateful day?
