Synopsis

Richard Wellington is a former CIA employee who now travels the world as an international oil consultant. On his way to Athens, he stops in the airport bookstore. He picks up a "tell all" nonfiction book about Operation FLYSWATTER, a CIA plan to sabotage the Iranian bacterial weapons program. Its plan went awry and several thousand people were killed. Was this an accident or part of a larger conspiracy to steal 10 million dollars? When Richard opens the book he learns on the first page that the central character, and probable villain, had used Richard's name as his cover name, and also has his age, eye color, hair color, and many background similarities. When Richard arrives in Greece he finds that his identity confusion puts him and his friends in mortal danger. He meets a former girlfriend, Margie, who is now with the CIA. It's indeed a very small world, manipulated by an ingenious and sinister criminal mind which twists the "six degrees of separation" theory to his advantage. Richard and Margie become the target of some of the most brutal people on earth. Survival depends on "T.I.T.S.," "the Voice," and the "condor position."
