The fall of the Berlin wall and the dismantling of the Soviet Empire changed the world, engendered new rivalries and started a new kind of Cold War. From Paris to Moscow, from Berlin to The Hague to New York, mafia hotshots, ex-members of the nomenklatura, powerful financial and industrial organisations, spies from all sides: all of these influential figures are involved in a political and economical warfare and the stakes are high. Alpha, a CIA agent, fights the endemic greed and corruption - even when he has to fight his own bosses.
