October 1961. The Soviet Union is working to create a supersonic bomber capable of launching nuclear weapons. Horrified by the warmongering of his political masters, one of the scientists working on the project decides to defect to the West with the aircraft's blueprints - but the KGB's reputation is well-deserved, and his attempt quickly turns into a nightmare. Soon, plans and counter-plans are put in action, and Buck and his friends find themselves thrust in the middle of a deadly game of spies...
A former pilot in the French Navy, FrdricZumbiehl has since turned to writing. He wrote several military adventure series, always insisting on hyper-realism, such as Team Rafale or Unit Flin. Frdric Marniquet is both writer and artist, creator of several series including Rafale Leader. Jean-Michel Arroyo is a self-taught artist come to comics after 10 years of bicycle racing. After Le Paquebot des Sables, he met Frdric Zumbiehl for a first series about air warfare, and the two stayed together for Buck Danny Classics.
