Charon’s Landing: The second book in the Philip Mercer book series. In Charon’s Landing, the Soviets had come up with several plans, which involved the obliteration of the Alaskan oil pipeline. Eventually, an ex-KGB agent managed to steal the plans, and it is later revealed that the agent works for an Arabian oil minister.
