Publisher's Synopsis
Russia in the winter of 1917 - a country torn apart by revolution and civil war in which a lone, un-named British spy, ill-prepared and badly trained, is on the run across the snowbound countryside dodging bullets, wolves and the attentions of the mysterious interrogator 'Captain S' from whose clutches he has just escaped. If he can find a clear road to the northern port of Archangel, a British warship should be waiting to rescue him - if he can stay alive long enough.
