Synopsis: When a crisis is too sensitive for conventional intervention, when politics and diplomacy won't work, the President calls on Stony Man. Ultrasecret and devastatingly effective, this antiterrorist unit employs sophisticated technology combined with crack commandos to strike at the heart of the enemy. When Stony Man is deployed, the situation is red-hot…
An explosion at a shopping mall in upstate New York launches an all-out Stony Man effort against the new face of terror. A brilliant and brutal warlord turned dictator is poised to destabilize the entire Middle East through blood politics. He has money, motivation and access to a new kind of underworld weapon: a smart bomb. A horrific series of planned attacks are about to plunge the United States into desperate chaos that will carry across the globe. The enemy isn't just targeting American soil, he's poised to savage the world.
