O knihe

Lieutenant Colonel Laura "Fox" Den is the
first woman to command an F-22 Raptor squadron. Widowed five
years before in a terrorist attack, she is left with two
kids and a heavy psychological burden. That burden explodes
when an American hacker, an avid video gamer, targets her
children's video games, and causes a Raptor in her squadron
to crash. This action precipitates a surprise war on the
Korean Peninsula. Kim Jong-il, the Dear Leader of the
Democratic People's Republic of Korea, tries to use the
outbreak of war for his latest perverted agenda. Den is
about to lead her Raptor squadron to war in the Pacific Rim
when another cyber attack comes from a totally unexpected
source that changes her orders and her life. Faced with
entertaining war, Lieutenant Colonel Den has to prioritize
her responses as a mother, a woman, a war-fighter and a
commander. Assisted by her mentor and close friend, Colonel
John "Wart" Hogge, she becomes immersed with other secretive
players trying to stop the conflict before it destroys the
peace in Asia, revives what has been called "The Forgotten
War," and kills millions of refugees caught between two armies.
