Présentation de l'éditeur
State-of-the-art action in the air, on land and at sea as the USA is drawn into conflict with China in this compelling and authentic new tale from an acclaimed master of the modern action-thriller.
Dale Brown’s spectacular new international bestseller – packed with high-action entertainment, cutting-edge technology and breathtaking scenes of aerial combat – looks forward to a near future where Taiwan’s declaration of independence from mainland China brings a very real threat of major conflict to the Pacific.
As China prepares its military response, the US president attempts to avert an international crisis by calling on his own tried and trusted secret strike force. But soon it becomes horribly apparent that with China and the USA moving ever closer to a nuclear showdown, it could be a mission too far for Patrick McLanahan, Brad Elliott, Jon Masters and their high-tech EB-52 Megafortress – the ‘Old Dog’ itself.
Biographie de l'auteur
Dale Brown was a much decorated US Air Force Captain aboard B-52s and FB111 fighter bombers, and participated in numerous top secret tests and exercises held to simulate an actual strategic war.

Only a man with Dale Brown’s background could provide the detailed authenticity that makes his novels such compulsive reading.
