In his first feature length adventure, it's up to Cabrillo and his crew of expert intelligence and naval men to put Tibet back in the hands of the Dalai Lama by striking a deal with the Russians and the Chinese. His gambling chip is a golden Buddha containing records of vast oil reserves in the disputed land. 
 
But first, he'll have to locate-and steal-the all-important artifact. And there are certain people who would do anything in their power to see him fail...
