Chokepoint (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780997645026)

A brutal, seemingly invincible Russian general flees the Motherland. Determined to control an international maritime chokepoint as the Ottoman Empire did 400 years earlier, he boldly trumpets his plan to the shipping industry. Skeptical, the free world is soon set back on its heels and seems powerless to deal with the self-styled despot. Negotiations are impossible. The Russians try a special-operations takedown. The General may hold a trump card that no one wants him to play. Conventional military operations against his Red Sea fortress and band of loyal fighters just won't work. An incident involving a modern British container ship provides the catalyst for action. Major capitals around the world examine all options to stop the rogue who has shown that he has the will and means to enforce his extortion of seagoing commerce. Dan Steele is a fearless ex-US Navy SEAL working in a top-secret cell as a warrior conducting America's sensitive clandestine operations. Still mourning the loss of his wife and twin boys at the hands of a terrorist, he is determined to stay in the intelligence loop and to bring his family's killers to justice. He plans a high-risk mission and finds himself executing it. Steele again puts himself at the point of the spear. This heart-pounding thriller that will elevate your pulse rate as you follow a plausible, near-future scenario which blurs the distinction between fiction and reality. From the White House situation room to the depths of the Red Sea, the non-stop action will keep you turning pages. Find out what Dan Steele faces in this high-stakes mission.
