Synopsis

From the New York Times Best-Selling Author of DEFCON One “Weber's expertise on U.S. military matters is high, and his depiction of Chinese motives and methods well above the level of Yellow Peril fantasies. A solid accomplishment for thriller readers.”—Library Journal In the skies above the Pacific, a U.S. Navy F/A-18 from the USS Abraham Lincoln blows up.  The question is why? But answers aren’t easy to find. When another jet mysteriously explodes in midair, the president can no longer ignore reality: U.S. forces are under attack.  But by whom? While the military and intelligence communities race for answers, the president calls on ex-CIA operatives and former military pilots Scott Dalton and Jackie Sullivan to launch their own investigation.  An investigation that takes some shocking turns as they uncover a conspiracy that seems to lead directly to the heart of China . . . “Thanks be to the book-writing gods; we have a writer who does what writers are supposed to do—tell a story.”—The Wichita Eagle

Goodreads review by John on February 24, 2016

Someone is zapping aircraft, primarily US military aircraft, and the evidence seems to point to China. How do you confirm what is happening and who is responsible--call in Scott Dalton and Jackie Sullivan, former military and CIA operatives. With an undeclared war raging around them, they are called......more

Goodreads review by Roger on September 03, 2014

Great plot: an all out war with China. The plot is deeply and intelligently thought through and presented in a very believable manner. The book is very smoothly written, with two protagonists who were believable and very easily identified with. I thought some of the things in the plot that happened t......more
