May 1997, Russia, north of the Arctic Circle, a border patrol rookie receives a distress call from the long-abandoned Station 16, uninhabited since the heyday of massive nuclear testing more than thirty years previous. When he and his squad fly out to investigate the call, they find an injured man who claims that the rookie was his attacker—and suddenly a nuclear explosion blasts the sky! In this unforgettable mystery that travels back and forth in time, European art team Hermann and Yves H. present a beautifully illustrated, chilling tale of the high costs of the sins of the past.
