Klappentext

NAME: Patrick Coonan
CODENAME: Delta
OPERATION: Red Mushroom
ANNOTATIONS: A breakdown in the strategic balance during the last decade of the Cold War prompts the Kremlin into launching an elaborate plan to insert a "dirty bomb" in the island of Manhattan, and blow it off the face of the Earth in in the event of nuclear war. Marlon Berkowitz, a retired special forces colonel, is selected by the U. S. State Department of Defense to shape and lead The Quadrille, a shadow-network of expendable undercover operatives tasked with the elimination of all Soviet nuclear saboteurs operating on U. S. soil. The colonel's first recruit is a man he is most familiar with; Sgt Major Patrick Coonan, a young U. S. Ranger sniper who no matter how many kill missions he is given, always comes back for more.

A SOBERING FAST-PACED THRILLER IN THE STYLE OF IAN FLEMING'S 007, AND DONALD HAMILTON'S MATT HELM.
