Thriller Techno
What will the next global conflict look like? Find out in
this ripping, near-futuristic thriller. The United States, China, and Russia eye each other across a
twenty-first century version of the Cold War, which suddenly
heats up at sea, on land, in the air, in outer space, and in
cyberspace. The fighting involves everything from stealthy
robotic–drone strikes to old warships from the navy’s “ghost
fleet.” Fighter pilots unleash a Pearl Harbor–style attack;
American veterans become low-tech insurgents; teenage
hackers battle in digital playgrounds; Silicon Valley
billionaires mobilize for cyber-war; and a serial killer
carries out her own vendetta. Ultimately, victory will
depend on blending the lessons of the past with the weapons
of the future. Ghost Fleet is a page-turning speculative thriller in the
spirit of The Hunt for Red October. The debut novel by two
leading experts on the cutting edge of national security, it
is unique in that every trend and technology featured in the
novel — no matter how sci-fi it may seem — is real, or could
be soon.
