Dead men tell no tales - until you wake them up...The Russian president's term in office is almost up, and his presumptive successor is a double-agent, backed by the intelligence agencies of the West. FSB Colonel Arkady Andreyushkin has been tasked with uncovering the conspiracy, but finds only dead bodies in the traitor's wake.Facing an impossible challenge, he sanctions a radical experiment, one which will take his rag-tag team of scientists and former agents to the outermost fringes of medical science -- and beyond. On a desolate plateau, high in the Altai mountains, they prepare to commit the ultimate transgression: the resurrection and interrogation of the dead.The dead, though, have their own agenda. With time running out and the team riven by paranoia and suspicion, the revelations they impart threaten to redefine Man's place in the universe, and the parameters of life itself.
