Three years later, a Soviet-backed coup in Tango installs Charles as a dictator who engages in the illegal diamond trade. In this conflict, hundreds of people are brutally murdered or maimed, many by having their hands or arms hacked off.

Tucker's CIA team plans a countercoup. He meets Sally Kofi, a former KGB officer who is also Charles's mistress and is serving as Tangon ambassador to the U.S. They fall in love and plot to oust Charles.
