For the first time in hardcover, the newest installment in Stephen Coonts' Deep Black series. Off the coast of Africa lies the beautiful Canary Islands, a resort destination of millionaires. But underneath this idyllic paradise is one of the most volatile fault lines in the world. It is here that an alliance between radical Islamic terrorists and a rogue element of the Chinese government plan to unleash an act of unimaginable geological terrorism. In the central Asian Republic of Tajikistan, twelve nuclear warheads, stolen by the Russian Mafia, are about to be smuggled out of the country into the hands of the conspirators. Charlie and Ilya go on an intercept mission, but before they can retrieve them, the weapons disappear.
