O knihe

Ralph Bleeker, a scientist with a high security clearance with the U.S. military has worked on perfecting technology for beam weapons. These weapons utilize electro-pulse microwave beams that travel at the speed of light and are capable of disabling the electronics on guided missile systems and satellite stations. Because of their speed and accuracy no preemptive weapon or satellite surveillance station can escape their destructive power.
Due to a personal tragedy Bleeker becomes disenchanted with his loyalties to the military and seeks to sell the secrets of this beam weaponry.
Carlo Fry and Jim Tyler, rogue mercenaries with CIA ties conspire with Pietro Segretti, an arms broker, to sell the weapons to the highest bidder.
In an alignment of destinies, that at first appear unrelated, Jennifer Mission-Mills, Sheriff Joseph St. Cloud's fiancé, has vowed if elected state senator, to stop the strip mining in the Black Mesa area in Arizona. Mining executives concerned over the effect of Jennifer's proposal hire an assassin, Frank Brill to put an end to her senate race. In an effort to confront the hired assassin, Sheriff St. Cloud is also unwittingly thrust into the secret genesis of beam technology.
Trying to hide the secrets and stop the sale of the beam weaponry is a joint effort between Alston Lawler of the CIA and General Ken Bradshaw of the U.S. military.
General Bradshaw pursues Segretti and Bleeker around the world to try and prevent the sale of the weapons. In the process he must also try to conceal the origins that are the secrets of beam technology.those secrets that are, in reality, a secret to no one.
