AFTER THE NEXT ELECTION, WILL THE WHITE HOUSE BECOME THE RED HOUSE? THE DEATH. The coming American election has captured the headlines. Candidates struggle for recognition, fighting for the top spot. Then the President's influential pollster is found mysteriously dead. But his power, his formula, to make or break candidates has not died with him - it has been stolen by the KGB. THE AGENT. CIA operative Drew Ellis has had his own private war with the Russians. And he lost everything. They liquidated his spy ring in East Berlin, a KGB assassin gunned down the beautiful agent he loved, and the CIA wanted him out, saying he was too angry to be a good spook. Now Ellis is an ex-agent, and all he wants is to get even. Suddenly he has his chance. THE PLOT. Following the pollster's death, the Soviets' plan to undermine the U.S. sweeps into action. One of the candidates running for President is a KGB sleeper, and the Russians have a frightening way to make certain he wins. Unless Ellis can destroy their brilliant and insidious scheme before millions of Americans go to the polls and unwittingly vote away their country.
