Two young prodigies from either side of the Iron Curtain, Yulia and Michael, meet at a chess tournament in London. They don't know it, but they're about to compete in the deadliest game ever played. Shadowing them is Greta, a ruthless Lithuanian resistance fighter who is hunting down some of the most dangerous men in the world. Men who are also on the radar of Vassily, perhaps the USSR's greatest spymaster. A man of cunning and influence, Vassily is Yulia's minder during her visit to the West, but even he could not foresee the consequences of her meeting Michael. When the world is accelerating towards an inevitable and catastrophic conflict, what can just four people do to prevent it?"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Cold War $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Chess $x Tournaments $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Interpersonal relations $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Soviet Union $x History $y 1953-1985 $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Spy fiction. $2 lcgft. 655 7 $a Thrillers (Fiction) $2 lcgft. 655 7 $a Historical fiction. $2 lcgft. 655 7 $a Novels. $2 lcgft. 941 $a 5 952 $l SWPB522 $d 20240229011841.0 952 $l CJPC482 $d 20240202015738.0 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20230524010344.0 952 $l CDPF771 $d 20230502012156.0 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20230502011955.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=E21771DEE8B011ED84E9FF1C55ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
