Publisher's summary

First in a new series from New York Times best-selling author Dale Brown, featuring US Air Force intelligence officer Nick Flynn on the hunt for Russian commandos in the mountains of Alaska.

After a CIA covert mission goes badly awry, US Air Force intelligence officer Nicholas Flynn is exiled to guard a remote radar post along Alaska’s Arctic frontier. This dead-end assignment is designed to put his career permanently on ice, but Flynn’s not the type to fade quietly into obscurity....

As winter storms pound Alaska and northern Canada, Russian aircraft begin penetrating deep into friendly airspace. Are these rehearsals for a possible first strike, using Russia’s new long-range stealth cruise missiles? Or is some other motive driving the Kremlin to take ever-increasing risks along the hostile Arctic frontier separating two of the world’s great powers? When an American F-22 collides with one of the Russian interlopers, things go south fast - in seconds, missiles are fired. There are no survivors.

Despite horrific weather, Flynn and his security team are ordered to parachute into the area in a desperate bid to reach the crash sites ahead of the Russians. It’s now obvious that the Pentagon and CIA are withholding vital information, but Flynn and his men have no choice but to make the dangerous jump.

Soon they’re caught in a deadly game of hide-and-seek with Spetsnaz commandos operating covertly on American soil. It seems that the F-22s and their Russian counterparts aren’t the first aircraft to have gone missing in these desolate mountains. The Kremlin is hunting for the first prototype of its new stealth bomber - which vanished on what was supposed to be a test flight…while loaded with nuclear-armed stealth cruise missiles.

As Russia and the US square off on the brink of all-out-war, it’s up to Nick to find the missing bomber...and prevent a potential nuclear holocaust.

The first of many.

First Dale Brown book……wow! Always seen them just never took the time. I have a lot of reading to do now.

Gripping

From beginning to end-a real adventure! Character development, plot twists, and a real talent for words

Modern Ice Station Zebra

This was a good but predictable story and I just couldn't get away from the similarities to Ice Station Zebra.

Good but,,

Did you have to end it with a300 meter shot from a subsonic round? Flynn being the king of the obvious world have just shot out the tires on the nose gear.

Solid First Book in This Series

I enjoyed the character development and story arch. I am looking forward to reading the next book in this series.

Enjoyed

This book started out a little slow but picked up as the story started to unfold. In the end, it was a great story. I’m looking forward to book 2 in the series.

A new 007 being made

It was an OK story but often predictable. It is the story of making America's new covert 007.

Great plot an performance

Great plot and performance. Technical concepts entirely plausible with real military gear. Clear language and attention to detail.

Great Yarn

Brown has kicked off a promising new series with Flynn as his main protagonist. Can’t wait to read the next episode.

A Really Great and Fun Story

It's been a long time since I listen to a Dale Brown book. I wasw not disappointed. He provides the same great way of telling a story. I will be looking forward to my next Dale Brown Book.
