Summary
Praise for the novels of Stephen Coonts America "The master of the techno-thriller spins a bone-chilling worst-case scenario involving international spies, military heroics, conniving politicians, devious agencies, a hijacked nuclear sub, lethal computer hackers, currency speculators, maniac moguls and greedy mercenaries that rivals Clancy for fiction-as-realism and Cussler for spirited action... [Coonts] never lets up with heart-racing jet/missile combat, suspenseful submarine maneuvers and doomsday scenarios that feel only too real, providing real food for thought in his dramatization of the missile-shield debate."-Publishers Weekly (starred review) "Fans of Coonts and his hero Grafton will love it. Great fun."-Library Journal "Coonts's action and the techno-talk are as gripping as ever."-Kirkus Reviews "Thrilling roller-coaster action. Give a hearty welcome back to Adm.
