Inhaltsangabe

In the dying embers of WW2, Winston Churchill orders Special Intelligence Service Commander Ian Fleming to mount a daring rescue mission.

But, the mission seems doomed to failure as it becomes threatened on all sides by the invading Russian army and by the dark machinations within the British secret service itself - not to mention the ever-present danger from the increasingly spooked Nazi captors.

But, as a Russian sub enters the Baltic with orders to bring down the largest of these vessels, the situation looks decidedly grim...
