- Synopsis
- The Soviet Premier's airplane suddenly veers off course, far above the frozen Canadian wilderness--and shockingly close to a brand new, state-of-the-art NORAD radar installation. Is the Soviet action a simple error or a tactical slap in the face? A squadron of crack F-15 interceptors and team of Canadian Arctic rangers race to the region where the plane has disappeared. Simultaneously, the new Baffin Island radar station goes active, showing NATO's hand, but poise to fend off a global crisis with the highes stakes. The U.S. Naval Arctic Weapons lab provides support with an untested surface scanning fathometer mounted in the hull of the U.S.s Defiance. The Soviets counter by rushing an awesome Akula class attack sub to search for signs of the plane beneath the Canadian pack ice--that is, unless the NATO forces get there first. Wit all of the technological might of East and West homing in on the pressure point in the iceboun Davis Straits, a showdown unfolds with the highest stakes of all--the fate of humanity itself.
