Nikolai 'niki' Zorakoff Has Made A Killing On The Soviet Black Market. He Smuggles In Luxury Goods From The West – The Blue Jeans And Perfumes That Wealthy Muscovites Simply Can't Do Without – And Sells Them For Small Fortunes. But When The Kgb Takes An Interest In Niki's Operation, He Knows He Must Run Or Die. And So, With A Forged Passport And As Much Money As He Can Carry, Niki Heads To The Russian Haven Of Odessa Beach, Where A Man Without A Conscience Can Live Like A God. It Isn't Long Before Niki Makes Contact With The Mobsters Of South Brooklyn, Who Loan Him The Capital To Start A Restaurant That Becomes One Of The Area's Hottest Nightspots. But When The Time Comes To Pay, Niki Decides He Would Rather Not Settle Up, Starting A Gang War That Will Pit Two Generations Of Mobsters Against Each Other In A Fight To The Death.
