A chilling, relentlessly suspenseful story of international intrigue and high-voltage political tension set in contemporary Russia, from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The General's Daughter.
"Highly engaging super-suspense." —Kirkus Reviews
On a dark road deep inside Russia, a young American tourist picks up a most unusual passenger a U.S. POW on the run with an incredible secret to reveal to an unsuspecting world. The secret concerns "The Charm School," a vast and astounding KGB conspiracy that stands poised against the very heartland of America.
Arrayed against this renegade power of the Soviet state are three Americans: an Air Force officer, who will fly one last covert mission into the center of a mad experiment; an embassy liaison, who will have her hopes for a saner superpower balance brutally tested; and the chief of the CIA's Moscow station, who will find his intricate dance of destiny and death reaching its devastating conclusion.
Great book.

The time of the plot is the cold war. It starts off with the surfacing of information, that a lot of American POWs from Vietnam are shipped to the USSR, where the are used to train Russian Citizens. And basically, both the Soviets and the US are using ruthless methods to damage each other.
The thriller gets its density from both sides trying to get control of the situation.
DeMilles central figures are in all novels the same. Undisciplined, extremely tough guys, usually liased with a 20year younger wife. This time, the guy is even a general.
Why only 4 points? DeMill has a reputation to chop off the end of the storys. The end is (looking at the recent past) may be even more believeable then 10 years ago, but still somewat unrealistic.
Still a recommendation to read.
