First book in Huston's bestselling 'Power' series.
Lieutenant Sean Woods doesn't tell anyone when Tony Vialli, his room mate, best friend and fellow F-14 pilot submits false leave papers and sneaks off to Israel to rendezvous with his new Israeli girlfriend. But when Vialli and the woman are assassinated in a brutal terrorist attack, Woods is shattered by the loss and now wants revenge on the man he knows is responsible - Sheikh al-Jabar, the self-appointed defender of Islam.
Taking matters into his own hands, Woods secretly signs on with an elite Israeli strike group. As the confrontation escalates and tempers flare on both sides, Woods finds himself caught up in a web of international intrigue and deception that stretches from the Middle East to Washington, and finally unravels in an explosive showdown with Islamic assassins in the Iranian mountains.
