1945: Floyd Whitman learns that his father has been killed by 'those Communist bastards.' Floyd is only a child, but his mind's made up: when he grows up, he will join the CIA. 1965: Floyd gets his first taste of combat in India, a privileged terrain in the Cold War between the KGB and the CIA. A certain Vladen Nechkov helps him pull off the successful 'delivery' of a dissident Russian scientist. 2003, Florida: Floyd is investigating the Lazenby Corporation, a lawyers' syndicate that has its fingers in real estate and in politics - and that works to keep voters away from the polls, specifically the black community, which is 80% Democratic. Beyond that, it has close ties with the Russian Mafia of Brighton Beach. And who should reappear but Vladen Nechkov - alias Illitch - who now heads up the Brighton Beach mafia, and actively supports the election of a Republican president.
