Mission: Cain

By Larry Barthurst

It's 1986, the early years of Islamic extremists and the latter years of the Soviet Union. a U.S. plane mysteriously explodes in the Philippines. The American government receives a message from a terrorist, thought to have been killed two years before, threatening to blow up a U.S. military installation on America's birthday--July Fourth--with a nuclear bomb! Sit in on war councils as an ad hoc committee tries to fathom the mind of a deranged killer and to decipher where he will strike. Alan Lawrence, once close to neutralizing the terrorist--Cain--is recalled to duty with the CIA from an early retirement at his Virginia farm. He chased Cain literally around the globe, but he is always a step behind. Meanwhile, components of the bomb are being smuggled into the country cleverly disguised as parts of track-and-field equipment. Will Lawrence stop Cain this time, or will July Fourth bring to America nuclear holocaust?
