the sensational debut novel from the New York times bestselling author of Flash Point and Fallout. What if the US President were unwilling to use the military to protect US citizens and defend the country's ideals and way of life from attack And what if Congress used a hidden clause in the Constitution to authorise military action without the President's approval that's the spectacular theme of James W. Huston's debut novel. Full of top military tech-talk, high-octane politics and crafty legal maneuvering, great characters and action aplenty, it's easy to see why Coonts, Clancy and Grisham are shaking in their boots!
A graduate of TOPGUN, James W. Huston flew F-14s off of the USS Nimitz with the Jolly Rogers. He served as a naval flight officer and worked in Naval Intelligence before becoming a lawyer and the acclaimed author of five novels. He lives in San Diego, CA.
