The year is 1947. In the war-ravaged city of Stettin, Poland, a mammoth Nazi aircraft carrier is docked. Its name is Graf Zeppelin, and Stalin wants it. The Americans will do anything to stop him, for with Graf Zeppelin the Russian navy could strike anywhere in the world.

When President Harry Truman discovers that Stalin ordered the aircraft carrier towed to Leningrad, he sets a plan in motion to have the mammoth carrier sunk.

Conflict of interests intersect as American commando Andrew Jay tries to destroy the carrier, Russian master spy and sadist Georgi Bukov wants it for his country’s benefit, and the former Gestapo Agent Ritter Fritsch will want to profit from the chaos any way he can.

More is at stake in war-ravaged Stettin than a desperate play for power that will push these three men to confront the fate that awaits them.
