<p>The Cold War is over and chaos is setting in. The new President of Russia is trying to create a new democratic regime. But there are strong elements within the country that are trying to stop him: the ruthless Russian Mafia the right-wing nationalists and even revanchist Czarists. Op-Center the newly founded but highly successful crisis management team begins a race against the clock and against the hardliners. Its members face an uphill battle. Their task is made more difficult by the discovery of a Russian counterpart to Op-Center-but this one is controlled by the same repressive hardliners. Two rival Op-Centers virtual mirrors of each other exist. But if this mirror cracks it will be much more than seven years bad luck.</p>
