Set in 1987, the waning days of the cold war, this action-packed
thriller centers around an actual, tragic historical event. It is a
secret that has been closely guarded for 40 years by the dying
Soviet regime, which will stop at nothing to ensure it never
becomes public. Retired American O.S.S. officer Leonard Galloway is
one of the few who knows the horrible truth. At the end of World
War II, the Soviet army kidnapped thousands of liberated American
prisoners of war and shipped them to the USSR to serve as slave
labor. Most of them died in the camps, but now, forty years later,
100 Americans remain alive in the Gulags. Galloway and his ally,
Soviet defector Sergei Novikov, set in motion an elaborate plan to
secure the remaining prisoners' release. Their efforts focus on
mysterious Polish scientist Stanislaw Padereweski, who holds the
key to the men's freedom. But the plan is derailed when ruthless
K.G.B. Major Yuri Andreyev intervenes. Denny Goodwin, Galloway's
young friend and business associate, inadvertently stumbles onto
the plot and becomes the centerpiece of the efforts to free the
prisoners. He and his rival-turned-love interest, Megan Sumerford,
find their lives in constant danger as they are pursued by the
K.G.B. and the F.B.I. It is a race against time, and Denny knows
that he is the only hope for the Americans long forgotten in the
Soviet Gulags ... This fast-paced thriller leads the reader from
the small hamlet of Midlothian, Texas, through Dallas and all the
way to Washington D.C., Edinburgh, Scotland, and the heart of the
Soviet Gulag. Meticulously researched with supporting documentation
from the National Archives, its gripping climax involves a
confrontation between President Ronald Reagan and General Secretary
Mikhail Gorbachev at their pivotal December 1987 Washington summit.

Small nations should not be asking themselves whether they need air
combat forces or not-they do. Combat aircraft are a nation's most
visible, flexible, and lethal force option that can be employed, or
threatened to be employed, in a range of missions. However small
Western democratic national air forces suffer from lack of
platforms, budgetary pressures, economics, credibility, and a
visible threat. They are unable to mount a credible unilateral
response, and with limited budgets they cannot pursue air force
structures of multiple aircraft types and attempts to remain
balanced, i.e. capable of performing a range of functions
associated with the effective employment of combat air power.
Broadly speaking small nations have two choices: firstly structure
for combined operations (be it alliance/coalition), or secondly
equip for unilateral action if the perceived threat and/or unlikely
hood of outside assistance dictates. For combined operations it
makes sense to consolidate the combat aircraft into a single
fighter-bomber type, with the intention of operating in a probable
American led coalition-(the United States US] would secure,
protect, and run the area of operations AO]). This aircraft does
not need to be highly sophisticated but it must be equipped to be
able to function in a coalition-capable of precision engagement,
self protection, and communicating with its coalition partners.
Countries choosing a unilateral option are faced with a number of
difficulties. There is a limited choice in the ways of "means" as
well as the not insignificant question of "ways" to effectively
employ a small number of aircraft to provide a credible response.
Again, economically, consolidation of effort into a single
independently survivable fighter-type aircraft is desirable.
