Beskrivelse

A former military veteran inadvertently became involved in a quest for nukes being shipped secretly to Antarctica.

He was specially chosen but did not know it, as those pulling the strings had to remain anonymous. His actions and involvement were manipulated from a distance, and controlled by others. Will they succeed? It was a dangerous game that could go wrong in many ways.

A coming regime change in South Africa had unforeseen consequences. It stirred up a hornet's nest. The disruption to people's lives led to desperate actions. The Generals had to deal with secret nukes that the military and government publicly denied they ever had. They also wanted to prevent a witch-hunt by the new incoming African government!
