The vice of the United States and Russia begin to tighten around the Miriam Brann government. Backed into a corner on her own deal, she flies to Washington, to seek guidance. Meanwhile Duffy makes a flight of his own upon receiving a coded message from an old friend. Brann ally and friend Sarah Nicholls pitches her bombshell revelations to Jamie Aarons, Leader of the Opposition, a vital player in her husband's move against Brann.
The plan to infiltrate Special Forces Sgt. Shaun Wade into Beijing under the cover of Charlie Higgs is executed. Agent Blackbird of British Intelligence awaits link-up on the ground. Duffy has made it to Beijing as Lead Instructor for PAP/Wujing 'The Snow Leopards'. Meanwhile in London, Miriam Brann is coming under pressure from the Opposition, led by its left-wing leader, Jamie Aarons. Her Russia deal begins to sour with the British public. Long-time ally and journalist Sarah Nicholls wants to understand what has happened with Belgrave Square and Sgt. MacDuff.
With the operation discovered, Miriam Brann has a decision to make. The mission must be stopped. The unreachable Duffy must be reached. The act must be prevented. Meanwhile Duffy is now in China, although not in his desired location of Beijing, but rather the Changbai Mountains in North Eastern China. He finds an opportunity to get himself training the right personnel, in the right place, for the right time.Strong language, violence.

Sir Pilgrim Moore has found his man. Duffy is back on British soil. Prime Minister Alex Kernoway takes his case and his country's plight to NATO. All under the creeping shadow of the forthcoming election. All the momentum is with Miriam Brann.
