Title: Hang time
First published: 1996
Description: Three American heroes are missing. Two of them are reigning NBA superstars, Tyrone Holliman and Greg Bannion. The third is legendary NCAA coach Digger Dawkins. The trio is visiting Israel for an exhibition and tour. They aren't thrilled about the trip, but it's all part of the sports-ambassador game. Until they step into the black Mercedes limo in front of their Tel Aviv hotel.

Suddenly the three Americans are prisoners speeding to a secret destination, hostages of the terrorist plot of the decade. Survival will demand all the courage and cunning they have gained in the streets and sports arenas across the U.S. And it will lock America and the Muslim world in a confrontation that could escalate into the war the world has long dreaded.
