Samenvatting:

Brinkmanship, Betrayal, and the Next Korean War

In a joint exercise with the South Korean navy, Admiral Pacino's son is one of the casualties from a North Korean missile strike. Enraged by a President he sees is prioritizing appeasement with North Korea over American lives, Pacino decides to make a statement and launches unauthorized military strikes against facilities in both Koreas that ignites an international crisis and pushing the world toward a devastating war.

Appointed as CIA Director, Mark Price, is drawn into a clandestine plot by North Korean dissidents to overthrow the Supreme Leader and bring the secretive nation closer to the West. Pacino's rash actions derail Price's mission, complicates the CIA's covert operations, and embarrasses the Administration.

Someone at the highest level of government orders Pacino's permanent removal. The attempt fails, and the defiant Admiral faces a court-martial for his strikes. The highly publicized trial quickly transforms from a legal proceeding into a scorching examination of American foreign policy, national values, and the true cost of human life.

This gripping, timely political thriller plunges the reader into a world of international brinkmanship, military action, and government conspiracies.
