English Summary/英文概要： 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.
An appalling choice faces the President of the USA and other statesmen: whichever option they choose, men are going to die. But Adam Munro is unmoved. He knows that politicians have no objection to loss of life, so long as they are not seen publicly to have had anything to do with it.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 俄罗斯正面临着大面积的饥荒。苏联人不得不把他们生存的希望寄托于美国。但苏联保安委员会和中央情报局一向就视彼此为对手，解救乌克兰人的自由之战，使其免遭黑海开放的野蛮侵略，又威胁到世界的和平状态，使得华盛顿和莫斯科的领导人都陷入一连串不可承受的阴谋、恐怖和焦虑之中。只有两个人可以把世界从核战争破坏中解救出来。每失去一道解救方法就意味着离死亡又近了一步——而倒数时刻早就已开始。
美国总统和其他的政治家们正面临着进退两难的选择：无论他们选择了哪条，人类都会面临死亡。但Adam Munro却对此毫无感觉。他知道政治家们没有任何理由失去生命，至少公众们没有看到他们为此做出任何的努力。
