General Douglas MacArthur, during the Korean War, ordered two small atomic bombs to be hidden in a small island near South Korea "just in case." Things get out of hand. They didn't and were never activated. Now that the war has ended, the US military is unable to find the two bombs. They are gone! Two Japanese businessmen form an alliance to eventually blackmail the USA with only the threat of detonation. One man is seeking vengeance for his parents dying in a Japanese internment camp; the other's parents perished at Hiroshima. Rolf Reiter, who saved the day during Chameleon Bravo, is called out of retirement to find the bombs. The Russians become involved because the two evil businessmen are considering threatening Russia as well after the Americans. One businessman isn't aware that the other is actually going to detonate one bomb in a large American city even if blackmail money is paid. He is in a hurry, and Rolf Reiter is plagued by traitors from the highest level in the American military and intelligence networks. The character and the plot twist and turn as the bombs are relocated and armed to annihilate a metropolitan destination.
