Title: The Merchant of Death
Author: Cliff Happy
ASIN: B00AHVNEPK
Publisher: Cliff Happy
Publication date: December 3, 2012
Format: Ebook
Description: Man-portable surface-to-air missiles. Easily concealed and transported, a single terrorist armed with one of these deadly weapons can bring terror to the skies. When over one hundred missiles are stolen, every passenger airliner is suddenly in the crosshairs. The architect of this disaster is the Merchant of Death, an infamous international arms dealer whose only concern is money. With time running out and the missiles on the auction block, the world’s governments find themselves unable to act, so they turn to the Friends From Damascus, an international counter-terrorist team who will go where no one else dares to see the missiles destroyed and the Merchant of Death put out of business permanently.
Spearheading the effort to find the weapons is Wolfgang Krueger, a founding member of the crack team of commandos who believes there is no problem that can’t be solved with the right application of high explosives. A man who knows no fear and cares nothing about tomorrow, his cavalier attitude will be put to the ultimate test when he teams up with Eve Drexler, a woman living on borrowed time. With little to go on and the clock ticking, the two are thrust into a world-wide hunt from the broiling deserts of Libya to the snow-covered peaks of Pakistan, from the dark alleys of Berlin to the seedy underbelly of Istanbul. To avoid disaster, Eve and Wolfgang must overcome not only deep-seated mistrust, but opposition from both man and nature as they pursue the elusive arms dealer. The price of failure: disaster at 30,000 feet.
