Synopsis

The fight against terrorism has reached the next level--
and now America will really go to war.

A series of cataclysmic events is exploding around the world. Two divisions of Chinese ground troops move against a neighboring Muslim nation, while a provocation unleashes generations of pent-up violence between the mainland and Taiwan. With U.S. troops still on the ground in the Middle East and "Ganistan," and an American president forced by rapidly unfolding events to make decisions on the fly, the most dangerous threat is the one no one sees.

For off the fog-shrouded coast of Washington State, a staggering attack will flood the Northwest with American refugees and force the bravest and the best of U.S. Special Forces under the toughest of the tough, General Douglas Freeman, into a pitched, desperate battle to find a shadow enemy--before he strikes the next terrifying blow against the United States.
