In the chaos folowing the collapse of the Soviet Union, Iranian millitants directed my the rogue Ayatollah Jabir, steal two metal canisters of microscopic radiocactive dust from an arsenal in the Ukraine. Designed to be dispersed by the wind, a single microgram of this plutonium rich dust will cuse lung cancer if inhaled. The dust persists in the environment for decades, resulting in a froced depopulation of the target area similar to the that aroun Chernobyl. One of the canisters is quickly recovered, but the seoond disapperars somewhere in Africa. Millions of lives are at stake. The only hope of locating the second canister requires information known only to the Ayatollah Jabir and the members of his small inner council.Master spy Arthur Monkheim had placed one of his many moles inside the Ayatollah's fction several years before. To advance this mole or "Judas" into the Ayatollah's inner council, Monkheim recruits assassin Sam McManus to enter Iran and eliminate the three Mullahs that stand in the way of the Judas' advancement into Jabir's inner circle. Rebecca Meyer, a fluent Iranian expatriate with a hidden agenda, accompanies Sam. They are expendable.
