Book description
A volcano. A nuclear missile. An explosive, deadly threat to the
West.
The murder of a prominent geophysicist and the eruption of Mount St.
Helens are viewed as coincidence by the White House. But Admiral
Morgan suspects the involvement of his nemesis, terrorist Major Ray
Kerman. Then comes the chilling threat - Kerman has a nuclear device,
Scimitar SL-2, which he intends to launch straight into the heart of
the volcano Cumbre Vieja, causing a massive tsunami to devastate the
East Coast of the United States. Shocked into action, Admiral Morgan
returns to the White House to run Operation High Tide - a desperate
race to evacuate the East Coast and locate the nuclear submarine
before it launches its deadly weapon ...
