Robert Ludlum’s (TM) The Arctic Event（ISBN=） 英文原版

　　On a remote island in the Canadian Arctic, researchers
discover the wreckage of a mysterious World War II-era aircraft, a
discovery that forces the Russian Federation into a shocking
admission. The unmarked plane is a Soviet strategic bomber that
disappeared with its crew more than fifty years ago while carrying
two metric tons of weaponized anthrax.
　　Desperate to prevent a political and diplomatic firestorm, the
U.S. president dispatches a Covert-One team led by Lieutenant
Colonel Jon Smith to the crash site. But others have reached the
frigid, windswept island first, including an international arms
dealer and his crew of vicious mercenaries. As for the Russians,
they are lying: a second, even deadlier secret rests within the
hulk of the lost bomber, a secret the Russians are willing to kill
to protect. Trapped in a polar wilderness, Smith and his team find
themselves fighting a savage war on two fronts-against an enemy
they can see and another hiding within their own ranks.
