Espionage has a new hero, and he carries a camera.
CIA photographer Matt Danner is on vacation when he takes pictures of a Russian merchant ship, the Petrograd.
Back home, Matt barely escapes when his car explodes in the mall parking lot. Someone is trying to protect the Petrograd's deadly secret.
The agency trains Danner for an important and dangerous operation: skydive from an aircraft in Norwegian airspace, open a wing type parachute, and fly over the nearby Russian border to photograph the Petrograd's secret base.
This is a new challenge for Matt, one that could lead to an important promotion--or death.
As he flies from DC to Norway, Danner encounters a Norwegian student named Inga, a London contact, and a CIA officer at the American embassy. One of these three is an impostor who wants to kill him. His days as an anonymous photographer are over.
The elaborate plan, the special parachute, the quick escape back to Norway--these all meet real-world conditions, and Matt is forced to improvise.
The Danner novels: something new and different, and a whole lot of fun.
The book includes maps and illustrations.
