Description

"For the Tom Clancy crowd, Brown remains the go-to guy."
— Booklist
On a remote island estate, a billionaire investor sells his air freight company to the devious president of Russia, Gennadiy Gryzlov. The Russians are plotting to use these massive private planes to secretly transport dangerous cargo into the United States.

The inept American president, Stacy Anne Barbeau, has failed to account for the Russian threat. Top-notch aviator Brad McLanahan and the elite Iron Wolf Squadron have joined forces with the Alliance of Free Nations in Eastern Europe to prepare for the imminent horrifying attack. Working with cutting-edge technology, the team will expertly pilot CIDs (Cybernetic Infantry Devices)—twelve-foot-tall humanoid combat robots—each armed with more firepower than a conventional platoon.

But their state-of-the-art weapons and honed battle skills may not be enough to stamp out this new menace. For the Russians have reverse engineered their own combat robots and they are smuggling them across America's borders, planning to attack from within. McLanahan and the Iron Wolf Squadron will once again put their lives on the line to fiercely protect the home of the brave and the free world.

"Dale Brown is a superb storyteller."

—W.E.B. Griffin

        In bestseller Brown’s rousing sequel to 2017’s Price of Duty, Capt. Brad McLanahan, Col. Wayne “Whack” Macomber, and Maj. Nadia Rozek of the Iron Wolf Squadron, who pilot cybernetic infantry devices, 12-foot-tall combat robots with “more firepower than a conventionally equipped infantry platoon,” face a new threat from Russia. President Gennadiy Gryzlov has succeeded in reverse-engineering his own cybernetic war machines from CIDs destroyed in the previous book. Gryzlov brings the fight to American soil with a spectacular attack on Louisiana’s Barksdale Air Force base, where incompetent President Stacy Anne Barbeau has gathered a display of American firepower to kick off her re-election campaign. The stakes rise as the Iron Wolf Squadron strikes back and the Russian dictator orders a retaliatory political assassination. The action builds to an exciting climactic battle between the Russian CWMs and Iron Wolf CIDs at the ranch of Texas governor and presidential candidate John D. Farrell. Brown shows once again why he stands out in the crowded military thriller genre. Agent: Robert Gottlieb, Trident Media Group.

        An off-the-books mercenary unit is the world's best bet against unchecked Russian aggression.Brown (Price of Duty, 2017, etc.) returns with the ongoing saga of legendary American pilot Patrick McLanahan, who is now more machine than man and employed, along with his fighter pilot son, Brad, by former American president Kevin Martindale's private security force, Scion. It's set in the not-too-distant future of 2020, when the American president, Stacy Anne Barbeau, described as "astonishingly petty and willfully blind," fails to recognize a looming Russian threat. As a consequence, the responsibility of saving the free world rests on the shoulders of Martindale's private army, working in partnership with the recently established Alliance of Free Nations in Eastern Europe. In particular, Scion's Iron Wolf Squadron of human piloted robots, known as Cybernetic Infantry Devices, has the capability to hinder any possible moves by Russia to extend its influence in Eastern Europe. But what happens when the Russian president finances a private army of former Spetsnaz operators and uses them along with a Russian prototype version of the CID to strike deep inside the United States? This well-researched story is told in a manner that respects the reader's intelligence and raises questions about American foreign policy decisions regarding Russia and Europe.A fun read that really shines with the author's convincing knowledge of military aircraft.

        May 1, 2018
        Brown continues the Patrick and Brad McLanahan saga with this latest high-stakes, high-tech thriller that invokes the current political situation between Russia and the U.S. The naive U.S. president has underestimated the Russian threat, leaving the country vulnerable to a bold Russian scheme involving transporting combat robots to American shores. The plan is to use the robots to assassinate a presidential candidate and disrupt the upcoming election. Brown has long been a master at high-tech thrillers, and, while the characters he creates to handle the military gear sometimes feel as if they were pulled from a soap opera, there is no denying that he knows his stuff. It also helps that, even with a long-running series, he continues to find ways to keep the action lively and relevant. For the Tom Clancy crowd, Brown remains the go-to guy.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2018, American Library Association.)
