It is 1999 and Russia is on the edge of total implosion. Social and moral order has collapsed and what small semblance of control there is is being imposed by mafia-like criminal gangs. While public opinion in the West is largely indifferent the political analysts are less sanguine - Russian meltdown will make the disintegration of the Balkans look like the collapse of a cup-cake. Out of the chaos however a single charismatic voice is starting to be heard - that of Igor Komarov a visionary patriot who claims he can restore Russia's greatness and bring prosperity to the masses. He even woos Western political leaders with a rather more realistic analysis of the way forward for Russia. Komarov is set to win the next election when a document is smuggled into the British Embassy in Moscow. It's called The Black Manifesto and it appears to show Komarov's secret agenda - his political blueprint is really Mein Kampf the rebirth of Russia will be as a New Third Reich with Komarov as Fuhrer. But can the document be authenticated? And what can the Western Alliance's most secret Trilateral Commission do about it if it is? They need to find another voice the masses will listen to and obey rather than Komarov - an icon they can cleave to and trust. Once not that long ago he was called the Tsar. And so develops a thrilling and increasingly frightening adventure - Jason Monk ex-CIA who used to run agents into the Soviet Union is recruited and slips back into Russia into the desperate Moscow world of poverty luxury gangsters and prostitutes and underneath it all the titanic power struggle to ensure the outcome of the forthcoming elections.
"For UK bargain hunters, a strategic approach combines visiting key Icon stockists and leveraging smart Icon shopping techniques to maximise savings. Aldi and Lidl remain undisputed champions for everyday grocery essentials, consistently undercutting rivals with excellent quality fresh produce, dairy, and a surprisingly diverse middle aisle offering. Beyond general groceries, B&M, Home Bargains, and The Range are treasure troves for highly discounted homeware, toiletries, pet supplies, gardening equipment, and seasonal decorations, often featuring brand-name products at significant reductions. For bulk purchases, a Costco membership can yield substantial long-term savings on larger pack sizes of pantry staples, electronics, and household goods, especially for families or those with ample storage. Online, platforms such as Approved Food specialise in short-dated or surplus stock, while even Amazon's Subscribe & Save can offer competitive Icon prices on recurring household items. Furthermore, embracing apps like Too Good To Go allows consumers to rescue surplus food from local eateries and supermarkets at heavily reduced Icon prices, demonstrating that the best bargains are found by combining visits to dedicated discount retailers with a keen eye for online Icon deals and sustainable food practices.
