A KGB agent is trained for several years to infiltrate the United States. Some time after entering America he changes his mind on his work when a mission requires him to kill a person. He leaves the KGB when the commercial aircraft he was supposed to be on crashed without survivors. He sees his chance to begin a new life in the United States and skillfully constructs a new identity as a small town newspaper editor complete with a pregnant wife. However the apparent suicide of an individual doing sonar work for the United States Government leads both the American and Soviet espionage agencies to his new identity.
