Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
On a remote island in the Canadian Arctic, researchers discover the wreckage of a mysterious World War II-era aircraft, a discovery that forces the Russian Federation into a shocking admission. The unmarked plane is a Soviet strategic bomber that disappeared with its crew more than fifty years ago while carrying two metric tons of weaponized anthrax.
Desperate to prevent a political and diplomatic firestorm, the U.S. president dispatches a Covert-One team led by Lieutenant Colonel Jon Smith to the crash site. But others have reached the frigid, windswept island first, including an international arms dealer and his crew of vicious mercenaries. As for the Russians, they are lying: a second, even deadlier secret rests within the hulk of the lost bomber, a secret the Russians are willing to kill to protect. Trapped in a polar wilderness, Smith and his team find themselves fighting a savage war on two front--against an enemy they can see and another hiding within their own ranks.

Just finished this yesterday. Almost couldn't put it down. It's like Robert Ludlum is still with us. Another "Covert One" adventure that is darn near perfect.

I listened to the audio version of this book on my MP3 player. I thoroughly enjoyed it! It had great sound effects to enhance a very fast-paced and captivating performance.

Good book, entertaining and a fast read. Almost as good as the original Robert Ludlum books.

Ok. New author, same result. A wonderfully entertaining romp in the Arctic.
The old characters make it easy to get into the book, and the new ones provide the extra ingredients in a great recipe of intrigue, excitement, and action.
Newcomers to the Covert-One series won't be disappointed, and won't feel like they've missed too much to follow along.
This is a great book for a long flight, or your vacation to someplace quiet. You really won't want to put it down.
Jon Smith more than measures up to the Ludlum hero tradition -- without some of the usual tragic weaknesses they were burdened with.
As for the hero riding off into the sunset with the girl... well, let's just say I'm sure there will be several more Covert-One books to come.
Cheers!
