Mission to Novgorod begins in Moscow at the height of the Cold War when, due to the confluence of unusual circumstances, an expert at the sophisticated art of electronic snooping is asked to kill a fellow American in the name of national security. Reluctantly agreeing, a hastily trained USAF Major Tom Collins (yes, it's his real name; his dad was an alcoholic) survives a dangerous underwater journey down the Volkhov River and arrives at the Kremlin in the ancient city of Novgord. There he finds his prey in the act of being raped by one of her Soviet guards. Tom places the sight of his sniper weapon on the victim's chest and.the proverbial the rest of the story begins. Mission peels back the thin veneer of honor and respect with which the spy game cloaks itself and reveals the underside of that dubious venture: the lies, the perfidy, and the misdirection that can so readily turn good souls into bad. It also is a story of courage, forbearance and sacrifice as our two heroes match wits and perseverance with the guys who should be on their side but are not because of what they consider a greater calling.

There are no official perimeters and the Triangle appears on no map, but still it has swallowed ships, planes, and various crew members, leaving no clue as to their fate. What causes the high number of disappearances in this area of the Atlantic? Is it a mysterious magnetic field, pirates, a weather anomaly, or something more? In this intriguing volume, readers will consider the scientific, the bizarre, and everything in between as they pore over different cases and theories about the baffling activity in the Bermuda Triangle.
