St. Patrick's Day, New York City. Everyone is celebrating, but everyone is in for the shock of his life.

Charm School

Nelson DeMille, 1989

On a dark road deep inside Russia, a young American tourist picks up a most unusual passenger — a U.S. POW on the run with an incredible secret to reveal to an unsuspecting world. The secret concerns The Charm School, a vast and astounding KGB conspiracy that stands poised against the very heartland of America. Arrayed against this renegade power of the Soviet state are three Americans: an Air Force officer, who will fly one last covert mission into the center of a mad experiment; an embassy liaison, who will have her hopes for a saner superpower balance brutally tested; and the chief of the CIA's Moscow station, who will find his intricate dance of destiny and death reaching its devastating conclusion.

Wild Fire

Nelson Demille, 2007

A group of Vietnam Vets who still keep in touch: the Custer Hill Club. They are prepared to attack foreign countries if America is attacked and their current rule is that if an Islamic country attacks America, then all Islamic countries will be nuked — thus deterring Korea, China or other countries having similar ideas against the US. The Custer Hill Club gets more ambitious and aggressive. The men decide to choose an American city to attack themselves, pretending it is an Islamic terrorist attack (either San Francisco or LA, the reader won’t know) in order for them to be able to nuke Mecca, the Aswan Dam and many other places. America will rule the world! Подробнее
