Acerca de esta escucha
An escalating regional crisis. World powers raising the stakes. Can one man prevent the ultimate disaster?
SEAL Commander Mike Rohrbaugh has been assigned to a Pacific Fleet staff job. But an increase in threatening activity in the South China Sea sets diplomatic waters churning. And when rogue Chinese Navy operatives seize a Filipino fishing boat, he’s ordered back into the field for a risky undercover operation.
With players in the Chinese, Philippine, and Vietnamese governments flexing their military muscles, Rohrbaugh knows the deteriorating situation could quickly lead to a world war. And when evidence surfaces of a nuclear threat, he knows he must race the clock to neutralize a devastating act of revenge.
With the fate of the globe in his hands, can Rohrbaugh succeed before the situation explodes into radioactive annihilation?
Flash Point is the suspenseful first book in The Defenders action series. If you like complex plots, true-to-life themes, and take-charge characters, then you’ll love Kenneth Andrus’s pulse-pounding adventure.
“… A fast-paced, action-packed international thriller pulled from today’s headlines.” (Rick Ludwig, author of Pele’s Fire)

A riveting story of how two men’s lives intersect in the midst of an existential crisis, The Able Archers is told through the eyes of two key participants: a young American intelligence officer, Captain Kevin Cattani, and his more experienced Soviet counterpart, Colonel Ivan Levchenko.

This remarkable moment occurred after Crozier made the decision to try to protect his sailors by pleading with his superiors for help when COVID-19 swept through the vessel. Two days later, he was relieved of command.

It's as big as the Empire State Building, a massive floating fortress at the throbbing heart of a US Navy carrier battle group. Its supersonic aircraft can level entire cities at a stroke. Its surveillance gear can track every target within thousands of square miles - in the air, on the surface, and under the sea. Its crew of 6,000 works night and day to keep this awesome military machine at peak performance. It's a Nimitz-class nuclear carrier, the most powerful weapons system on the planet. Nothing can touch it.
