160 Degrees East

The fourth military adventure in the Jim Wilson series finds military mates Jim, Ivan, and Geordie in a battle against climate, political corruption, and U.S. Marine secrets. The Prime Minister of the U.K. has sent the three men on a bootless mission to Kamchatka, Russia, where they are to look for an experimental Marine vehicle. Quickly realizing they've been duped as a false recovery team, they enlist the help of the Russian President, who directs them to the remote and rugged Pacific coast of Canada. Arriving on a Russian trawler, Jim, Ivan, and Geordie obtain aid from a group of local natives to track down the vehicle and then hunt down the murderer of the two U.S. Marines who guarded it.
