Synopsis

A merchant vessel becomes part of a conspiracy aimed at the Panama Canal. An impostor ship and a concealed atomic weapon place passengers and crew inside a plot much larger than their voyage. Discovering who controls the vessel becomes a matter of survival.

Historical context

The fictional Soviet operation turns Cold War fears of infiltration and atomic attack into a maritime thriller. Its premise reflects contemporary anxieties rather than documenting an actual attack on the canal.
