OverviewAUTHOR'S NOTE: The Advancing Storm is the second version of my debut espionage thriller. The original version is entitled Lightning Storm. Following the publication of both initial versions of the story, I felt I could improve the book further, and a third and final version is entitled Crossfire.One by one, a group of top Department of Defense research scientists are murdered or have died by unusual circumstances. Each instance appears to be a random act of violence or a fateful accident. Halfway around the world, a military conflict in Korea escalates. Marine Lieutenant Danny Gallaher survives after being injured and captured by enemy forces, only to learn that his father has tragically died while skydiving, and his older brother was brutally killed while investigating a lead in their father's death. As Gallaher delves into the heartbreaking deaths of his family members and those of his father's military research colleagues, he uncovers a sinister plot to hijack a game-changing weapons system and to use it to upset the balance of world power.Gallaher is propelled into action as he faces the enemy aboard a foreign highly-advanced, nuclear-powered submarine, and must destroy the state-of-the-art weapons platform before its deadly power is unleashed against an unsuspecting naval battle group.The story-line is backed by highly-detailed and well-researched descriptions of current and near-future military hardware and space-based technologies. It has the feel of a near-future science fiction military adventure mixed with the impact of today's impending economic and political news headlines.A must-read for all techno-thriller, international espionage, murder mystery, adventure and conspiracy fans.
