The USA discovers that China has developed a new, virtually undetectable submarine and are using it to spy on America's most important military bases and top secret technology.

Produktbeschreibung
The USA discovers that China has developed a new, virtually undetectable submarine and are using it to spy on America's most important military bases and top secret technology. The Chinese suspect that an expansion of a Second World War historical park and marine sanctuary in Alaska's Aleutian Islands is really a front for an advanced laser weapon that can render China's missile deterrent obsolete. They begin naval and air reconnaissance of the project, but quickly find that the remote location is immune to traditional spy craft. A special intelligence team, Team Walker, is created. Young Lt. Chad Gritt is tasked with understanding the Chinese threat. Former CIA operative Thadius Walker is recruited out of retirement to develop strategies to keep their adversaries from discovering the Alaskan secret. Their plan is to use the new installation as bait to study the Chinese sub without compromising the facility. Their final defense will be movement of a SEAL team to the Aleutians. Their opponent, ruthless Chinese officer Gen. Yang, chooses the moment a typhoon strikes to invade the island, leaving the SEALs stranded. Beautiful Maj. Olga Tvorshik, head of a tiny Air Force police unit and stodgy Col. May Washington, a computer genius, offer their expertise to curb the threat. But without the Navy SEALS, can two women who have never seen combat defeat the elite Chinese commandos?
Autorenporträt
RODGER CARLYLE is a storyteller who draws on an enormous personal library of experiences. An adventurer, political strategist, and ghostwriter whose love of flying began in the Navy, his experiences stretch from New York to Los Angeles, from Amsterdam to Khabarovsk in the Russian Far East, and from Canada into Latin America.Through his passion for research, he treasures finding those events that are ignored or covered up by the powerful when some strategy or plan goes completely to hell. From there, he creates a fictional adventure narrative that tells a more complete story. Rodger is comfortable in black tie urban settings, but he is never happier than in the wilderness. He has faced down muggers in San Francisco, intimidation by the Russian Mafia, and charging grizzly bears. Most of his stories take his readers to places they will never visit. He likes to think that he is there with them.Visit Rodger Carlyle's website at www.rodgercarlyle.com
