- An RCMP officer is ordered to discreetly take a Russian immigrant into custody in advance of a state visit by the Soviet premier. When his prisoner is kidnapped, the officer is drawn into a complicated assasination scheme.
- During the 1970s, on the eve of Soviet leader's official visit to Canada, the Soviet Ambassy alerts the Canadian authorities to the existence of a Latvian immigrant who may plan to kill the visiting Soviet leader.The Soviets explain that Latvian immigrant Rudolf Henke is bitter over Latvia's treatment by the USSR and that he may attempt to assassinate the visiting Soviet leader in Vancouver, Canada.The Soviets request that Henke be kidnapped by the Canadian police to prevent him from any wrongdoing.Commander Petapiece of the Special Branch of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police assigns Corporal Tim Shaver to kidnap Rudolf Henke.This seems to be the only solution since the Canadian government fears political backlash from publicly detaining such a high profile political agitator without any concrete evidence of criminal activity from his part.The Canadians want to accommodate the Soviet requests in order to keep good bilateral relations with the USSR.When Corporal Tim Shaver of the RCMP breaks into Rudolf Henke's apartment, he finds the bathtub running, a record player in use and traces of blood leading to an open back window.But there is no trace of Henke.Corporal Tim Shaver must find Rudolf Henke before it's too late.—nufs68
- Currently on suspension for punching a superior, Vancouver-based RCMP officer, Corporal Tim Shaver, takes a secret meeting with Commander John Petapiece of Special Services to discuss a top secret assignment, the largely illegal task which Petapiece implies would go a long way to Shaver's suspension being lifted: to detain and hide Latvian political agitator Rudolf Henke prior to and for the duration of Soviet Premier Aleksey Kosygin's state visit, Kosygin in town to discuss disarmament. In that task not going quite according to plan, Shaver quickly comes to the belief that he is being set-up to take a fall of some sort, thus he feeling he not able to confide truthfully to Petapiece about what's happening with the assignment. He does however turn to people in the department he believes he can trust and that can help him (despite his suspension), including Bogna Kirchoff, who he has only recently started dating and on whose good side he has to be in order for her assistance and to maintain their dating status. Shaver eventually comes to learn that what is happening is a much larger conspiracy which places his and Bogna's life in danger.—Huggo
