    Summary: 
    "Israel, October 1973. As the Yom Kippur War flares into life, a state-of-the-art Soviet MiG fighter is racing at breakneck speed over the arid scrublands below... and promptly disappears. NASA Flight Controller and former top US test pilot Kaz Zemeckis watches the scene from the ground -- and is quickly pulled into a dizzying, high-stakes game of spies, lies and a possible high-level defection that plays out across three continents. The prize is beyond value: the secrets of the Soviets’ mythical “Foxbat” MiG-25, the fastest, highest-flying fighter plane in the world and the key to Cold War air supremacy. But every defection is double-edged with risk, and Kaz needs to tread a careful line between trust and suspicion. Ultimately, he must invite the fox into the henhouse -- bringing the defector into the heart of the United States’ most secret test site -- and hope that, with skill and cunning, the game plays out his way."-- from publisher.
