Overview

Ryan, Reacher, and Bourne fans will love this pulse-pounding thriller, which introduces Nick Gallagher, who thrives when the stakes are at their highest... After escaping the clutches of the North Korean Army from a POW camp during a military incursion into South Korea, battle-tested U.S. Marine First Lieutenant Nick Gallagher soon discovers that his father and older brother have been brutally murdered. As Gallagher recovers from shrapnel wounds, his investigation into the deaths of his closest family members uncovers a diabolical plot to murder top Department of Defense research scientists, his father among them. Each of the scientists was killed as part of an elaborate scheme to take possession of a game-changing, nuclear-powered laser system intended to be mounted onto a ship or the main sail of a ballistic missile submarine and targeted by a space-based satellite reflection mirror. This modern-day espionage thriller follows Gallagher at breakneck speed as he investigates and races against time to thwart an international corporate strategy to deliver the system to a foreign nation, thereby upsetting the balance of world power. The story employs the latest in military technology, from intense cat-and-mouse nuclear-powered submarine chases amid the ocean depths to turbulent, bullet-riddled jet fighter dogfights in the sky, to Cape Canaveral rocket launches, and space-based satellite flight deviations in low-earth orbit. ""This novel has it all!"" --- Kirkus Reviews ""Mixing espionage and military action, this thriller peaks when the action starts."" --- Publishers Weekly
