'Operation Desert Storm' was the codename for the Western Allies' attack on Saddam Hussein. Six years later, the Iraqi dictator plans his revenge... Britain is planning to open a new oil field in the North Sea, serviced by the new rig 'Margaret Thatcher'. But Saddam has hired an international terrorist known as 'The Palestinian' to destroy the rig before it can become operational. It is up to Lt. Sealham of the Special Boat Service to trace the terrorist and stop him reaching his target in the North Sea.
