The C-Factor
The Soviet Union of the late 1970's worried that their military superiority is in jeopardy, steals the formula for solid rocket fuel being used by the United States, but end up with a ́Pandora's box' capable of bringing them to their knees. Dr. George Taylor, cancer researcher and college professor leads a team of doctors and nuclear engineers on a United Nations World Health Organization Inspection to the Ukraine State of the Soviet Union. The team's mission: evaluate the effects of nuclear power usage on power plant site workers, their families and the surrounding communities of several nuclear facilities, one of which is Chernobyl. During the course of the inspections Dr. Taylor is unwittingly drawn into a dangerous mystery which began years earlier in Greenland. The truth of this secret if released could place the entire Soviet social and political system at risk. George will find his loyalties challenged between the goals of the United Nations mission and those of his secret involvement with the Presidents National Security Agency. The height of the ́cold war ́ is the setting for this mystery, adventure and love story.
