Description

Kolymsky Heights is set in Siberia, a remote, hostile landscape that provides the perfect setting for an underground Russian research station. It is a place so secret it does not officially exist; once there, the scientists are forbidden to leave. One scientist becomes desperate to get a message to the outside world and sends a plea across the wilderness to the West to summon the one man alive capable of achieving the impossible.

A chilling tale of Siberian espionage.
