In a city where gunfire and explosions are commonplace, an early-morning ambush that leaves a senior American diplomat in critical condition appears to have been just another protest against the presence of U.S. military bases in the Philippines. \u003cp\u003eBut not everyone accepts that assumption. Sadler and the Coronado group, an organization dedicated to working with the Filipino government to prevent acts of violence against Americans in the Philippines, aren't convinced. They're committed to finding out who was responsible, what the perpetrators' motives were, and how to bring them to justice.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWhile the intelligence resources of both countries are devoted to solving the crime, indications of a coup d'état by factions within the armed forces intensify. When the U.S. Secretary of Defense, Stan Martin, plans a trip to Manila, threats against Americans increase. Martin insists on proceeding with the visit as planned, but what happens when he arrives at Manila International Airport is captured on live television and shocks viewers around the world.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWith more American lives at stake every day, a determined Sadler is compelled to take steps beyond conventional protocol. What he discovers challenges his ability to distinguish truth from illusion.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Terry Isaacson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0595439934\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780595439935\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e iUniverse\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/18\/2007\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.79lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.55d","brand":"Terry Isaacson","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48435563266303,"sku":"9780595439935","price":15.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_4600fe82-011b-404d-8737-0f0b0f32a199.jpg?v=1777151209","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-coronado-illusions-terry-isaacson-9780595439935","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
