Another awsome Clive Cussler book. I enjoyed it very much, the story grabs you from the first page.
North Africa is in turmoil. The new Libyan president has had the new Egyptian president assassinated, and the latter's widow, Susan Salaam, vows revenge. She enlists the high-tech help of Air Force general Patrick McClanahan and his Night Stalkers. But the Libyans, and their scheming secret allies, hold a trump card-one with a deeply personal meaning for McClanahan-and it may be one that will leave even the Night Stalkers powerless..
Beneath the Eastern seaboard of America lies a danger beyond imagining, a disaster waiting to happen. It's called FIRE ICE.
This will leave you breathless!

Kurt Austin Attempts to save the U.S. from devistation by a power mad Russian tycoon trying to take over Russias govt.
Cusslers heros tend to be a little over the top. A good book to pass the time.

"AS ALWAYS, CUSSLER TWISTS FACT AND FICTION INTO A ROPE OF TENSION THAT WILL LEAVE YOU DANGLING UNTIL THE LAST PAGE"
