Telling the story needs a careful narrator. . . . No surprise that this has been picked up for a film/series. I'm eager to experience again." -Madeline, Goodreads reviewer IN 1983, THE WORLD STANDS AT THE BRINK OF NUCLEAR ANNIHILATION, AND ONLY A FEW PEOPLE ARE AWARE OF IT. A riveting story of how two men's lives intersect in the midst of an existential crisis, The Able Archers is told through the eyes of two key participants: a young American intelligence officer, Captain Kevin Cattani; and his more experienced Soviet counterpart, Colonel Ivan Levchenko. The story plays out from the skies over Siberia to the gritty, dangerous streets of East Berlin. The radically different worldviews of Cattani and Levchenko punctuate the deep divisions of the Cold War. The evolving relationship between the two men also highlights the humanity common to both sides. Only by working together will Cattani and Levchenko find a way to prevent a global nuclear war between the United States and the Soviet Union. "Morra does a masterful job in recreating the events which led us to the edge of nuclear Armageddon. The Able Archers is not for the faint hearted but is a must read." -Samuel G. Tooma, Oceanographer and Author "Can send shivers up the spines." -Intelligence Officer Larry Cox
