Scoloderus Conspiracy
It has begun. Bold plans have been set in motion. A colonel on a secret mission disappears; within hours, his daughter vanishes and his wife dies in an accident. The military leadership is desperate. They have gambled everything and they have lost control. The enemy has the colonel's daughter, a high-level defector, and a risky plan. Their plan covers every possibility and they will make any sacrifice necessary to achieve victory. Can they trick the colonel into revealing his secrets? The controlling become the controlled. The powerless become powerful. A thoughtless discourtesy unravels everything and re-directs destiny.
