From the author of The Intruders.Skirmishes between Iraqi and U.S. fighter planes may provoke Saddam Hussein into using his newly developed nuclear weapons. The warheads are being assembled at a laboratory disguised as a dairy plant. The only group standing in the way are some Kurdish terrorists, a Mossad agent, and a U.S. pilot who is shot down over western Iraq. This novel vividly depicts the slaughter of Iraq's populace and Saddam Hussein's megalomaniacal vision. On the American side, the cunning strategy of a CIA agent and an Air Force colonel help save the day.
