is a gripping novel about everyone's worst nightmare... a full
scale terrorist attack on America. As the once-powerful Soviet Union descends into
social and economic collapse, a group of hard-line Communists has devised a strategy to
return their country to its former glory. In league with the most ruthless militant
extremists of the Middle East, they will hatch a plot to eliminate the one person with the
power to stop them -- the president of the United States. It is a scene played out
