RED SCORPION is a Cold War thriller about a Soviet-trained assassin assigned to infiltrate an African uprising and kill its rebel leader. When a barroom brawl lands him in jail and into the confidences of another rebel leader, the men stage a prison breakout that results in a voyage across the harsh African desert and into the heart of the rebel camp. But when the planned assassination attempt fails, the Soviet agent suddenly finds himself betrayed by the very men who hired him. After another sojourn in the wilderness, he is unexpectedly drawn to the rebels' cause and leads an attack against his former comrades that is no-holds-barred warfare.
