Lavish parties. Passionate meetings in the night. Bone-chilling murders. Exams. The day-to-day life of Schuyler Van Alen and her Blue Bloods friends (and enemies) is never boring.

The battle rages on every front.... NATO armored divisions have broken out from near-certain defeat in the Soviet-ringed Dortmund/Bielefeld Pocket on the North German Plain. Russian SPETS commandos, dressed in captured American uniforms, have infiltrated NATO lines to sow confusion among Allied troops. Despite being faster than the American planes, Russian MiG-25s and Sukhoi-15s are unable to maintain air superiority over the western Aleutians, due to the upgraded pulse-Doppler look-up, look-down radar on the American F-16 Falcons and the advanced AN/AWG-9 weapon control system on the F-14 Tomcats.

On every front, the war that once seemed impossible blazes its now inevitable path of worldwide destruction. There is no way to know how it will end.
