There they are met, by surprise, by the President, who tells them that the Director of the Central Intelligence Agency has disappeared on a flight from Japan over the Pacific, along with his Chief of Plans and Chief of Covert Operations. The next few days are full of surprises and, once again, Lero, Jean and Jefe are pressed into service to carry out a mission that had been planned solely between the Director of the CIA and the President, in secret.
