Aboard an icebreaker in the Arctic Ocean, a sonar operator hears an unusual noise coming from the ocean floor.  She can't isolate it and chalks the event up to an anomaly in the newly installed system.

Meanwhile operatives, with the Chinese Ministry of State Security are dealing with their own mystery, the disappearance of a brilliant, but eccentric scientist, Liu Wangshu.  They are desperate to keep his crucial knowledge of aerospace, and naval technology out of their rivals hands.

Finding Liu is too great an opportunity for any intelligence service to pass up, but there's one more problem.  A high level Chinese mole, code named Surveyor.  

President Ryan has only one choice, send John Clark and his team into China.
