Codename: STALVODA Translation (from Russian): STEEL WATER A relic of the Cold War, the deadly compound Stalvoda has a long-buried connection with MI6.

Former agent Archibald Tyron is another, and he's also carrying a grudge – one that's aimed squarely at the heart of His Majesty's Secret Service!
