Fortunes of War

“From the master of the techno-thriller, a gripping tale of a new Russo-Japanese war”—and the international team of soldiers attempting to stop it (People).

Four Japanese nationalists storm Tokyo’s imperial palace and behead the emperor. Their goal: to invade Russia and conquer oil-rich Siberia in order to dominate the globe. Soon the world explodes in war, as Japan, Russia and the United States go head-to-head in a struggle that threatens total destruction. 

Now three men from three different nations must meet their ultimate challenge: to fight as patriots in a war driven by greed and madness—and save the planet from nothing less than a full-scale nuclear attack.
