Book Synopsis
Based on real events, the story begins during the Cold War era, with the Cuban Missile Crisis and the Northern Air Defense Command (known as NORAD), the primary deterrent to a Russian bomber attack. Sabotage nearly disables NORAD. One man, Marty, discovers the sabotage and restores NORAD, possibly preventing World War III.
The second part of the story is about the Mideast war and ISIS, the known terrorist radical Muslim outlaw army. ISIS arose in a part of the world that was a center of enormous oil-based wealth. Despite the increased efforts of those who opposed ISIS, the outlaw army did not fail. ISIS then did the unthinkable and shoot down a civilian Russian airliner with a super weapon.
Two Fighters, one Russian and the other American, are also shot down by the ISIS super weapon. The two pilots meet, hide in a cave, and, risking their lives, find vital information about the ISIS weapon. This information allowed Russian and US forces to find and capture the ISIS weapon.
The free world comes together and eliminates ISIS and other rogue religious radicals. The two pilots become lifelong friends and, allowed by their governments, tour the free world. With the true story of the Cuban Missile Crisis, they find and introduce to each other the major players of both the Russian and the American sides of the missile crisis.
