Description
The KGB is alarmed. Jewish dissident Abram Levitch has become dangerously popular, his every move reported in the international press. So Andrei Karpov, vicious top agent for the KGB, receives the most chal-lenging assignment of his career: stop Levitch, prevent him from escaping to Israel, entrap him in a lingering prison death.
With his KGB future on the block, Karpov unleashes a devastating plan. But just as his iron fist closes around his prey, Karpov is struck by sudden seizures. He has no choice but to go under the knife of the eminent Mos-cow surgeon Dr. Irina Tashenko-a woman once abused by Karpov's selfish passions, who secretly sym-pathizes with Levitch's desperate plight.
