About this listen

Jon Bennett is a top Wall Street strategist turned senior White House advisor. But nothing has prepared him for the terror that he will face. Saddam Hussein dispatches his top hit men to assassinate the President of the United States. Iraqi terrorists spread carnage throughout London, Paris, and Riyadh...and the Butcher of Baghdad has a nuclear ace in his hand that he has not yet played.

Only a solid Arab-Israeli coalition against Iraq can keep the U.S. and other Western nations from certain devastation. And only Bennett and his beautiful partner, Erin McCoy, can make that happen. Their secret project - a billion dollar oil deal off the coast of Gaza - could be the basis for an historic peace treaty and enormous wealth for every Israeli and Palestinian.

But just before the treaty can be signed, Israeli commandos foil an Iraqi scud missile launch, recovering a nuclear warhead and evidence that the next attack will level Washington, New York, and Tel Aviv.

Now, the Israeli prime minister gives the American President an ultimatum: melt down Baghdad within one hour...or Israel will do it herself.

From Jerusalem, Bennett and McCoy must summon all of their stealth and savvy to save themselves - and the world - from absolute destruction.

Critic reviews

"Dick Hill performs this thriller with practiced ease, speeding up when the tension should rise and relaxing through the backstory....[D]oomsday predictions and a spectacular ending bring Rosenberg's speculations to a dramatic conclusion." ( AudioFile)

Great book ... worth the listening to

Great book that lays out a good perspective of what could happen. OK for the naysayers it is a book from a Christian perspective, if you don't appreciate a book of this sort, don't buy and don't write negative comments. If you want a good political book with the theme of Christianity throughout, this is a book for you

A Real Page Turner

This one will grab your interest from the beginning and hold it throughout. The characters are well developed for the most part. Narration is superb.

Boring

Predictable, stereotypical and propagandistic. Unimpressive and not really worth the time. Don't waste your credits.

Excited, but a little disappointed.

I love espionage books, but I hate the language that is usually a standard part of them, so I was excited to hear about a Christian book written in this style. I thought I would be able to listen without hearing language that I don’t like. The language included in this book was NOTHING compared to mainstream books, but I would have still enjoyed it more if the occasional h-word and d-word were not included.

Great book

I had a hard time getting past the way the narrator did voices for the female characters, but I quite enjoyed the audiobook overall. Rosenberg writes compelling stories in this genre.

Surprise Ending

I liked it a lot, but was let down by the quick ending. Just when I was looking for the one two punch and the impact on the bad guys.....the end

Very interesting

I thought this book was soooo interesting. I couldn't stop listening to it. I ususally listen in the car, but I found that I had to bring my Ipod in and listen at home too. I can't wait to listen to the rest of the series. I think everyone will love this book. It is a thriller for sure. Thanks to the author (very well written).
