Hungarian Trade Mission
Description
Cold War shadows swallow the Hungarian Trade Mission, brutal employer of translator Shaba Demsky, whose 1952 murder crushes her desperate bid to unmask Soviet mole 'Black Water' Gault amid treason's choking grip. This diplomatic nerve center pulses with lethal silence, its ranks complicit in smothering exposures that threaten U.S. secrets—WWII strategies, Yalta betrayals—fueling Sam's mess-hall inferno where America's sacred idea ignites against foreign treachery's iron veil.
