From
the
acclaimed
author
of
Top
Hook
and
Hostile
Contact,
the
fifth
exhilarating
tale
of
modern
espionage
and
military
adventure
featuring
US
Navy
intelligence
officer
Alan
Craik
--
sure
to
appeal
to
the
many
fans
of
Tom
Clancy
and
Dale
Brown.
Alan
Craik
and
his
US
Navy
battlegroup
confront
two
new
enemies:
international,
organized
crime
and
a
massive
storm
at
sea.
Alan
is
back
on
the
aircraft
carrier
USS
Thomas
Jefferson,
using
the
latest
radar
technology
to
monitor
smuggling
craft
in
the
Indian
Ocean
between
Pakistan
and
Somalia.
As
a
break
he
is
sent
ashore
to
assess
the
port
of
Mombasa
for
a
forthcoming
liberty
visit.
While
the
battlegroup
remains
at
sea
because
of
a
brewing
storm,
he
arrives
in
Mombasa
safely.
But
he
is
hardly
on
the
beach
when
a
US
Navy
support
ship
is
blown
up
at
the
dockside.
Chaos
ensues,
and
further
acts
of
violence.
Soon
--
cut
off
from
support
by
the
storm
at
sea
--
Alan
is
charged
with
the
task
of
tracking
down
the
faceless
people
behind
these
apparently
motiveless
terrorist
attacks.
