Publisher's summary

An air force special agent and a tipsy British diplomat challenge the Chinese mob for control of a World War II mega-weapon.

Global Hawk reconnaissance aircraft from the American Territory of Guam detect suspicious Chinese naval activity near an abandoned island airbase. Intercepted radio traffic suggests the Chinese are hunting for an Army Air Corps plane that disappeared in 1945. The Air Force Office of Special Investigations sends Agent Jack Quintana to find out why. Quintana teams up with tipsy British diplomat Thurgood Throckmorton (that’s “Sir Thurgood” to you rabble) on Guam’s seedy “Tumon Strip”. There, they latch on to a Chinese mafia boss and chase a handful of clues to a private island, a Missouri farm, a London pub, and an uber-secret base in the Indian Ocean. Beautiful dames, island shamans, hungry sharks, Chinese paratroopers, and eighty years of history all lead to a forgotten mega-weapon and a super-power showdown in the vast Western Pacific.

Atomic Nostalgia with Whiskey, Blood, and Comic Relief!

Pulse-pounding pulp-noir thriller with interwoven elements of U.S. Air Force history.

Chinese, Russians, Drunken Brits, Dirty Cops, Femme Fatales, and Nukes, baby!
