Twelve years ago, after Navy SEAL Keith Maddox was captured in Da Nang Harbor, Admiral Robert Jessel made a difficult choice, a trade with the Chinese: two U.S. atomic warheads for Keith’s life. A few months after the exchange, the warheads went missing. Though Keith made it out safely that day, the decision has haunted Admiral Jessel ever since.

Twelve years later, the warheads have been found in the Persian Gulf at the bottom of the ocean. Now it’s up to Keith to track down the devices before General Xu Caihov, who had the warheads reverse engineered into IEDs before they went missing, gets there first. But Caihov isn’t the only one after the bombs—Keith’s old nemesis, former KGB agent Nikolai Pronin, is back with a thirst for vengeance, and he’s working with powerful new allies: the Palestine Liberation Organization. And to top it off, Anna has disappeared without a trace.

After a failed attempt at recovery, the chase is on across the Negev Desert as Keith, Bill Crawford, and John Matsumara try to stop Pronin from delivering the bombs into the hands of the PLO. But after tragedy strikes and shocking secrets come to light, Keith faces what may be his most difficult mission yet.

Two times Keith has faced off against Nikolai Pronin, and each time Pronin has escaped. Will the third time be the charm?
