Thirteen Months of Orion

It was the early 1980s. The American hostages had just been released by Iran, the USA men's ice hockey team upset the heavily favored Russians on the way to an improbable Olympic gold medal, and it was clear the United States was winning the Cold War on the world's stage. In a desperate final bid to stir up tensions and hold on to power and relevance, the Orion Group, a rogue guard within the Soviet Union, puts in motion a plan designed to set the Cold War back thirty years. Thirteen Months of Orion is a spy thriller, which details the lengths to which the Orion Group was willing to go, and it has all the classic elements including international intrigue, beguiling espionage, and sex. These are all rolled into this spine-tingling prequel to the soon to be released America: The Year 3000.
