Checkmate

The discovery of a "Dead File" in the KGB archives of Moscow revealed some startling records. This abandoned file gives rise to profound questions with national implications. Answers to these questions are uncovered by two special agents after an exciting, danger-filled journey to an uncharted destination. As one mystery is solved, another is born, like the many-headed Hydra of Greek mythology. This presents a worthy challenge to the prodigious mind of the Chessmaster and the remarkable intuitions of his beautiful assistant as they travel on adventures and romantically strewn pathways between Washington, D. C. and the "Cradle of Civilization".
