Ace reporter Sally Henderson discovers the story of the century, a hidden nuclear program and surprise attack against Israel and America. Sally's ex-boyfriend, Air Force test pilot Aaron Simons, risks his life to save her from execution at the hands of a rogue nuclear nation. Between them lies half a world of distance and a countdown to an execution that will bury everything Sally uncovered. Bridging the gap involves stealing America's most stealthy and artificially intelligent secret aircraft, Eagle One. What's at stake is more than just Sally's life but the start of a nuclear war in the Middle East.
