Arctic Storm Rising

First in a new series from New York Times bestselling
author Dale Brown, featuring U.S. Air Force intelligence officer Nick Flynn on
the hunt for Russian commandos in the mountains of Alaska.

After a CIA covert mission goes badly awry, U.S. Air Force
intelligence officer Nicholas Flynn is exiled to guard a remote radar post
along Alaska's Arctic frontier. This dead-end assignment is designed to put his
career permanently on ice, but Flynn's not the type to fade quietly into
obscurity...

As winter storms pound Alaska and northern Canada, Russian
aircraft begin penetrating deep into friendly airspace. Are these rehearsals
for a possible first strike, using Russia's new long-range stealth cruise
missiles? Or is some other motive driving the Kremlin to take ever-increasing
risks along the hostile Arctic frontier separating two of the world's great
powers?

When an American F-22 collides with one of the Russian
interlopers, things go south fast?in seconds, missiles are fired. There are no
survivors. Despite horrific weather, Flynn and his security team are ordered to
parachute into the area in a desperate bid to reach the crash sites ahead of
the Russians. It's now obvious that the Pentagon and CIA are withholding vital
information, but Flynn and his men have no choice but to make the dangerous
jump.

Soon they're caught in a deadly game of hide-and-seek with
Spetsnaz commandos operating covertly on American soil. It seems that the F-22s
and their Russian counterparts aren't the first aircraft to have gone missing
in these desolate mountains. The Kremlin is hunting for the first prototype of
its new stealth bomber?which vanished on what was supposed to be a test
flight...while loaded with nuclear-armed stealth cruise missiles.

As Russia and the U.S. square off on the brink of
all-out-war, it's up to Nick to find the missing bomber...and prevent a potential
nuclear holocaust.
