In the wake of Muammar Gaddafi's demise, the Mediterranean's strategic waters become the stage for a new power play. Ali Hakim Sherif, emerging as Libya's formidable strongman, dreams of resurrecting the glory of the Ottoman Empire.

Sherif's quest for dominance finds eager allies in Iran and China, setting the stage for an explosive confrontation.

With global attention focused on the conflicts in the Middle East and Ukraine, the United States mobilizes clandestinely.

Together with Commander Jim Ward and an elite SEAL team, they are America's first line of defense, tasked with supporting Egypt against an audacious adversary. In a race against time, American forces face the daunting challenge of preventing a new empire's rise while protecting a centerpiece of global commerce.

In this tenth installment of the critically acclaimed Hunter Killer series, bestselling authors Wallace and Keith weave a thrilling narrative of loyalty, betrayal, and the relentless pursuit of power. The Gibraltar Affair is a perfect read for fans of Tom Clancy, Brad Thor, and Mark Greaney.
