Designated targets. It begins with a tactical nuclear explosion in Russia. Evidence points to the Chinese, who claim it's a Russian trick. For Stony Man, it's the start of the ultimate nightmare as the two countries amass firepower and troops. At the heart of the horror is stolen tech- a non-nuclear Fuel-Air explosive \"T-bomb.\" Cheap, powerful and clean, its fallen into enemy hands. As cities crumble under its force, the teams track the covert and traitorous factions wreaking havoc in a game of world domination.

It was a decent read, not great. There are some personal nuances about Pollata's writing that probably lowered the score for me. A nuclear device -- the T-bomb -- is stolen and all indications are a controversy between China and Russia is brewing. A Slovakian force is behind the efforts with a high-class, wealthy elitist from Arkansas involved from the home shores. As a result, Stony Man is engaged. Able Team take on the domestic threat and remove any possibilities for acquiring this weapon for Duvall to sell across the globe and make money. Likewise, Phoenix is sent overseas to take back the weapons and destroy the militants that have released two versions of the bomb in a show of force. On a positive note, the pacing of the book over the past 100 pages is very good. The author bounces between teams and sites to keep the reader engaged to the end.
