May, 1989. The two nuclear superpowers are finally talking peace, but not everyone in the Soviet Union seeks such resolution.

To cover up their plot and capitalize on the resulting chaos, they invade West Germany, setting off a chain of events and the Third World War. Across Europe, soldiers and spies are drawn into the conflict. From NATO headquarters to the front lines, the information is there to prevent nuclear annihilation if only they can find it in time.
