Description: Alexander Hawke is back, this time to defend the free world from the growing menace of Red China and her secret allies. Powerful and hungry for oil, China wants access to the Middle Eastern pipeline, and it has the nuclear arsenal to get what it wants. Alex Hawke uncovers a brilliant scheme involving one of America's own allies that is meant not only to ensure China's international supremacy, but to topple America itself. As he works with British Naval Intelligence and the CIA, Hawke must fight to find and stop the ticking time bomb that just might destroy the free world
