Horizon of Fear (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781548859060)

Journalist Nate Adams hadn't worked for Global News Weekly since he was forced to resign by a cutthroat young editor on his way to the top. When a former colleague, Karl, reaches out years later and asks him to return and investigate a story about radical Islamic terrorists gaining tactical nuclear weapons, Nate is sure he's just being baited. Terrorists accessing nukes, spreading fear, and actually creating a new Islamic caliphate in Europe seem highly improbable. But the magazine has a familiar source, and the potential story is too intriguing to pass up.

Along with his partner, former CIA agent Jenny Martinez, Nate travels throughout Europe and the Middle East to uncover details of the threat. He soon learns that it's not a hoax, and he's nearly assassinated for his efforts. Enemies lurk everywhere-even at Global, where someone is tipping off the jihadists about their investigation.

Nate and Jenny are drawn in further when the terrorists successfully destroy part of Rome, killing thousands of civilians. Teaming up with an army special ops unit, the pair must expose the informant and chase down the jihadists before they obtain the remaining nukes to carry out another devastating attack.
