The Evil Alliance

North Korea and Iran, two nations, half a world apart, each with its own evil aspirations for power and control. Each armed with nuclear weapons and each, apparently, ready to use them. And each makes no secret of its intentions, daring other nations to intervene. At its headquarters in Langley, Virginia the Central Intelligence Agency has been ordered by the president to 'do something.' Problem is, the CIA has no assets in either country. In Iran, the CIA's station was shut down in 1979, nearly 40 years ago. North Korea is a walled-off country, since the 1953 armistice its ties to other countries are limited to those sympathetic to its Communist rulers Gradually, ever so slowly, the CIA is able to recruit agents indigenous to both countries and send them 'home' to report on current events. But there are only four of them and their lives are at risk at every turn. Using its latest spy-in-the-sky technology, combined with the incredible bravery of its on-the-ground assets, the CIA eventually negates the plans of the two nations, with regime change in each a real possibility.
