Based on the internationally popular Konami videogame! Highly skilled former FOXHOUND agent Solid Snake is called out of retirement to do what he does best--neutralize a crisis of epic proportions. A deadly team of renegade FOXHOUND operatives has taken over the nuclear disposal facility on Shadow Moses Island in the icy Aleutians. If their demands aren't met, a powerful, top-secret weapon will be unleashed upon the world. But somebody is hiding something. Somebody has a hidden agenda. And somebody wants Snake to learn secrets about his dark past--secrets that would shake any man to his core.
