Synopsis: The enemy is powerful.
Al Qaeda, Hamas and other Islamic terrorist groups have joined forces under a maniacal new leader, Fadi Wazeeri.
The plan is simple.
With a Scud missile launcher hidden inside an oil tanker, Wazeeri can get a nuclear weapon well within range of the White House. And the time to strike is soon.
The odds are astronomical.
Agents Still and Hollahan are on a special assignment—one that technically does not exist. They have little more than the name of the mysterious terrorist mission: Crescent Fire. Good thing these boys know how to work under pressure. . . .
