Daily Arc 142
Haz and Soviet agent Irina are flying in a glider over the Altai Mountains bordering China and the USSR when they are hit by ground fire. With a Chinese patrol out searching for them, they must make their way to an abandoned temple where NATO forces are scheduled to pick them up. That temple is not completely empty, though, as the pair finds an old blind monk who, when the patrol nears, silently send the two into a hidden compartment. The identity of the monk and the reason for his helping them will be a major surprise.
