โฆ Synopsis
Is the cost of losing your family worth stopping a world war?
Spring 1966. One of the CIAs most well placed assets in Leningrad, Alexsandr Zhirkov, suddenly goes silent, and the agencys brass get nervous. Agent Ed Maddux travels from Bonn to meet the Zhirkov, but he remains dark, reluctant to share anything with Maddux. However, after some prodding through back channels, Zhirkov uses his sister as a go-between and a frightening scenario emerges: The Russians are planning to use a nuclear sub to attack the eastern seaboard of the U.S.
With little time to prevent such a brazen assault that will surely lead to World War III, Maddux must travel to the obscure launch point for the Russians nuclear sub in the Arctic in order to stop the attack and prevent global doom.
