Russia has sent troops into Ukraine and Moldova, ostensibly to protect Russian citizens. NATO and newly elected U.S. President Stacy Barbeau are incensed but too timid to react with more than a warning. Scion, a clandestine company led by a former American president, offers its services to Ukraine, recommending a counterattack on Russia using a new weapon called a cybernetic infantry device (CID). Tension is high while Brad McLanahan, son of series hero Patrick McLanahan (
A Time for Patriots) endeavors to train the troops in time for the counteroffensive before the Russians find their location.
VERDICT Brown, one of the leading authors in military thrillers, stays true to form in his newest work. Weaponry remains the star. Highly recommended. [See Prepub Alert, 11/24/14.]
