American planes are exploding and falling out of the sky
and no one knows why. Three commercial jets are gone and no
one saw anything or heard anything. There are no clues in
the wreckage that indicate missiles were used. No other
planes were in the areas of the crashes and nothing showed
on radar. The only thing the President can do is call in
Dr. Cammy Talbot, world-famous missile defense expert.
Cammy believes the explosions are the result of a new
stealth technology and it's obviously being done by one of
America's enemies, but none of the usual suspect groups is
claiming responsibility. She must develop a defense system
against the new threat and in order to do so, she must go
to the hot spot of the world. India and Pakistan could go
to nuclear war and Cammy may be the only one able to find
an answer to keep them from each others' throats.
Meanwhile, someone's trying to kill her, and working
closely with Lt. Col. Hunt Daniels isn't doing her libido
any good.
GAMBIT, the second novel by Karna Small Bodman, is
even better than her first novel, CHECKMATE. This book has
all the action and drama we hoped her second political
thriller would provide and then some. The return of Cammy,
along with Hunt and other characters from the first book,
brings you right back into their world. I can't wait to
read about Cammy's next adventure. Don't miss GAMBIT. And
if you haven't read CHECKMATE, indulge yourself. You're
worth it. A good read.
American planes are being shot out of the sky, and no one
knows how or why. Three commercial jets have gone up in
flames. In each crash, nobody reported seeing anything in
the sky and nothing showed up on the radar.
Dr. Cameron Talbot, a world-famous expert on missile-
defense systems, believes that a new stealth technology is
being used in these attacks. With the country in a panic
and the economy taking a nosedive, the White House orders
the beautiful young scientist to protect America’s
endangered airways. Who is behind the threat? None of the
usual suspects have claimed responsibility for the crashes.
As Cammy races against time to develop a defense against
the mystery weapon, she comes to suspect that the downed
planes are only the opening gambit in an ambitious campaign
of conquest.
