A plane was shot down in 1940. Forty-four years later, in Cold War Europe, trying to find the truth is still perilous.
Finnish Veli-Matti ‘Vellu’ Jokinen has spent years trying to uncover the mystery for why Soviet war planes shot down the civilian airliner Kaleva. He has an intriguing new lead to pursue. Unfortunately, Mossad, MI6, and the KGB are all equally interested.
In 1984 during a trip to Hong Kong, a chance encounter with a British RAF fighter pilot ‘Rog’ and a seductive Mossad agent ‘Hannah’ traps the men into a hazardous race between the competing intelligence agencies.
The two men travel to Soviet Estonia to follow Vellu’s lead, but their high stakes adventure turns into a nightmare. The men are arrested and thrown into the notorious Patarei prison in Tallinn.
What happens to the ill-fated men? Will the mystery of the Kaleva shootdown ever be solved?
What secret was worth sending a planeload of passengers and crew to their deaths in 1940? What is the secret worth now?
