The Jackal. A tall, blond Englishman with opaque, gray eyes. A killer at the top of his profession. A man unknown to any secret service in the world. An assassin with a contract to kill the world’s most heavily guarded man.

Although one of the most notorious thieves in London, he is enough of a patriot to anonymously send the documents to MI5 so that they might locate the traitor.

In conjunction with a GRU general, an academic named Krilov, and a master strategist, Philby devises “Plan Aurora” to ensure a Labour victory by exploiting the party’s support for unilateral disarmament – although it is noted that the strategist, a nuclear physicist and chess Grand Master, has come up with most of the plan’s strategy.
