What if history lied to us? What if secrets revealed decades later could threaten world stability and leave us in chaos? Decades ago, in the midst of the 1962 Cuban missile crisis, a paranoid Kremlin leader ordered the underwater deployment of two nuclear missiles near Cuba's shore; each warhead sealed in a protective cocoon. Buried in the sand, the twin nukes lay undiscovered for half-a-century.Rumors of the missiles existence lure the attention of Yuri Tarasov, a pathological arms-merchant obsessed with possessing the doomsday weapons. Together with his ruthless assassin, Ivana Yenko, they board Yuri’s high-tech yacht Decadence and head for Cuba.Naval Academy graduate, 25-year old Dalton Crusoe, finishes his MBA, is recognized for his quick analytical mind. When asked by friend and mentor Ed Kosko, head of the NSA, to interrogate a retired, Russian military-officer seeking asylum, Dalton learns of a sinister plot to assassinate President Connor and Russian President Blinikov during an upcoming, historic summit. Dalton assembles a secret special ops team directly under President Conner’s authority to locate and secure the missiles before Tarasov can retrieve them.In a race against time, Dalton struggles to rescue his kidnapped girlfriend, search for the nukes throughout the Caribbean, outwit the evil Tarasov, and prevent the destruction of Washington D.C. along with the Russian and U.S. presidents!
