Opis

In the very near future, the Islamic Republic of Iran continues its relentless quest for nuclear weapons, undeterred by covert attempts by the United States and Israel to deny them this capability that will forever dangerously destabilize the Middle East region. When an unlikely intelligence source reveals a desperately bold Iranian plan to divert existing nuclear weapons from another country, the CIA and Israeli Mossad hastily plan and execute a daring counter-strike to foil their operation. Amidst an underlying theme of the protection of the national security of the United States and her closest allies, we witness the courage and resolve of an American Navy SEAL warrior, Lieutenant Chance Lyon, as he struggles with the the memory of the loss of a close friend and fellow warrior and the demons surrounding the brutal murder of his former lover. His sense of duty and and dedication to the culture of his profession become a jarring counter reality that influences a chain of events stunningly plausible in outcome and consequence. Our fast-moving odyssey takes the reader from secret military bases on both coasts of the United States to the halls of power in Washington, D.C., exotic cities and isolated combat outposts in the Persian Gulf, the strategic waterways of the Indian Ocean and the Arabian Sea, the vast uninhabited deserts of Iran, and the mysterious private banks in Switzerland. The characters encompass a range of fascinating people, from powerful political and religious leaders, highly motivated and courageous military men utilizing complex surveillance systems and deadly weapons employing unimaginable new technology, intellectually gifted and cunning spymasters, unethical scoundrels motivated by potential riches, and sinister nuclear weapons technicians. In the end there will be winners and losers, and the stakes could not be higher in this game of nuclear intrigue. The end game will keep the reader on the edge of their seat up to the end
