Atlantic Scramble

Mission 3 finds the Phoenix Force called together through Hal Brognola and Stony Man to move against a most dangerous group of terrorists able through use of a Russian drug to change behavior, getting people to do their bidding. Ultimate target for these terrorists is Jerusalem and the Middle East. The action moves from a Army base in Texas across the southwest to Norfolk, Virginia, out into the Atlantic on board a newly recomissioned sub-chaser. Elements of the Army, Air Force, and Navy impinge on this Phoenix Force operation. As always their mission is top secret and they are forced to work undercover with little to no credit given their success. Action takes place above the water and below as our team struggles to overcome one of the nastiest groups of terrorists headed toward Libya. How this book can read like today's headlines is truly amazing. Written in 1982 to help launch a series of books in the executioner series, it still gives chills as the terrorist danger is everpresent with us today. Good read. Semper Fi.
