An Afro-Russian KGB agent returns to his forefathers' homeland — Chicago — to track down a Russian dissident prepared to unleash the ultimate doomsday device. Dissatisfied by the results of the Post World War I Civil Rights movement, angry African-Americans immigrated to the Soviet Union in the 1930's, for the promise of equality under Communism. Colonel Damian Turner, a native Afro-Russian KGB agent, returns to Chicago, the former home of his grandfather, as part of a worldwide manhunt for one of his nation's highest ranking officers, Marshall Victor Craig. Craig, infuriated at the rapid and continuing decay of his Motherland, brought on by the end of the Cold War and Russia’s adversaries, has escaped with what the Russians have told the world is a prototype for the ultimate nuclear weapon. Craig's certain to detonate the device in four days once the arming sequence is complete and cause the ultimate nuclear disaster, a cascading self-sustaining fusion reaction, which will ignite the Earth into a sun. As "Loki," a Chicago police detective assigned to work with Damian, is drawn deeper into the hunt, he realizes things aren't as they seem. The Russians are hiding something and his new friend is lying. The deadline nears and Damian's past, present and future collide and he's forced to make painful choices between conflicting obligations and loyalties to humanity, his nation, others, and himself.
