Storyline
A joint British-American plot is devised to steal a highly advanced Soviet fighter aircraft (MiG-31, NATO code name Firefox) which is capable of Mach 6 (hypersonic flight), is invisible to radar, and carries weapons controlled by thought. It is only through the dissidents that Gant remains one step ahead of the KGB and reaches the air base at Bilyarsk, where the Firefox prototype is under heavy guard.

“I feel the book is very respected and honored. The Daisy Jones & The Six adaptation is everything I wanted the book to be.”
