Power is a hungry animal.
During the height of the Cold War, Victor Godeanu, the right-hand man and closest advisor to Romanian dictator Nicolae Ceaușescu, and secret agent for the KGB, must escape Romania and Ceaușescu before his cover is blown. Helped by an undercover Stasi agent and an up-and-coming CIA agent, Godeanu must elude the KGB and his own country's spooks, fully aware that his defection is putting his family back home in mortal danger.
Victor finds himself in grave danger amid Ceaușescu's growing paranoia - and news that his nemesis is closing in on his secret. In Germany on a diplomatic mission, Victor decides to take his chance with the Americans.
