Intrigue surrounding the audacious plot to assassinate a powerful world leader will keep you on the edge of your seat. A FORTRESS STEEP AND MIGHTY is part historical novel and part prediction for what might be coming. Bogged down in a war he can't seem to win, will Russia's Hitleresque president decide to use nuclear weapons to achieve his objective? The cold war is hot again. The democratic countries of the world face off against totalitarian forces bent on genocide and the destruction of freedom and self-determination. The world holds its collective breath as the threat of nuclear annihilation threatens everyone on planet earth. A FORTRESS STEEP AND MIGHTY looks back at the extraordinary efforts made to ensure the continuity of the United States government in case of an attack from the USSR. The reader will relive the days of "Duck and Cover" as well as the obscenity that was the Berlin Wall. This thriller, the fourth book in the Reunion Chronicles Mysteries series, reaches into the future with an outrageously bold plan intended to prevent a present-day nuclear catastrophe.
