In 1979 when a weekend hunter discovers an ingot in a remote mountain cave it triggers a flurry of international gold seekers. The Tsar’s cache of 110 tonnes is worth three billion dollars.

He mobilizes the the dreaded Soviet Naval Infantry; Alex Plastiras, a disgraced US Marine now working as a mercenary for exiled Romanov interests, launches an airborne unit in the race for the gold. Then there’s Harry Travis a reluctant Canadian Secret Service operative who finds people are not what they seem—in fact some are either ruthless lovers or deadly killers—or both! Problem is, Harry has never killed anyone. Yet. Colonel Ilya Orlov, a guard’s officer with sworn loyalties to a long-dead Tsar, founded a secret community called “Stavka” where the old Russian flag still flies.
