Thirty years in the future, journalist Hank Thomas uncovers a conspiracy--a secret war plan to seize the world’s last big oil field. With the help of a patriotic Russian girl, the newsman visits the war zone in western China’s famous Turpan Depression. There he finds romance while also discovering the final damning evidence that will upend an American presidential election.
