The year is 1836. A mysterious young English soldier known as the ''Boy Colonel'' commands a crack regiment in the snowy wastelands of Siberia. No one knows his history. No one knows his name. The Cossacks want him dead -- but are they the only ones? It seems his worst enemy may wear an English uniform. The Boy Colonel strives to perform his duty, but when that duty becomes mixed he must decide which sovereign is greater -- the king of England, or the God of the Bible. Treachery, intimidation, and deceit block his path. His choice of allegiance may mean the difference between life and death. Is he prepared to risk all to protect his loved ones?

He returned home to find his high school and college friends married and as a returning veteran finds he is about as popular as a quarterback who threw and interception in a play-off game. Because of his love for flying, he stayed in the Air Force and by an act of the CIA and his commanding officer, he is introduced to a beautiful Russian girl in Arizona. He is ordered to fly her to Alaska where the NVKD, Russian Secret Service will pick her up in exchange for a captured CIA agent. He thinks she is just another broad. She thinks he is just another cocky fighter pilot and turns a cold shoulder to him until they are forced down in the wilds of Canada. After their return to civilization, she is sent back to Russia and an insane NVKD colonel who is threatening her family. He takes a job with a civilian airline. After flying over the world in jet passenger planes, and taking many women, the memory of this girl cannot be suppressed. when the CAB opens Russia for commercial airlines, he is assigned to the first jet service into Moscow, where with a breaking in the Cold War, Russian newspapers carry pictures of their inaugural flight and she sees his handsome face once again.
