Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Rick Fontain is back. The adventure begins with the election of Ronald Reagan in 1979. This was the same year that the Soviet Union invaded Afghanistan. Early in 1982 POTUS called for a plan of action to arm and finance the Afghan Freedom Fighters known as the Mujahideen. Operation Cyclone was the code name assigned to this project.CIA Officer Mike Vickers, not a participant in this story, was solicited by Avrakotos to help design and roll out the blueprint to equip the Mujahideen. Included in this Covert Action program was the Stinger guided missile. This weapon system would be credited as the major factor in the Russian withdrawal in 1989.General Gerald Bushman returns as the Director, Defense Intelligence Agency. Rick Fontain, who is now a Member, Technical Staff, of AT&T's Bell Labs, is brought in for his expertise with the Stinger technology. His familiarity with the Russian gunship, the Mil Mi-24 is just icing on the cake.Rick is re-united with his Redeye instructor, Andy Davis, and together they lay out a plan to kill buku Russian aircraft. However, the operation stalls in 1982 and does not move forward until Rick thwarts an assassination attempt on one Maalouf Torki bin Taisei. Mr. Taisei is a Malaysian government official. He is also the largest arms dealer on the Pacific Rim.The KGB gets wind that the Pakistan ISI has agreed to support Operation Cyclone. Their attacks are fierce. However, the result is not what they expect. President Reagan issues a change to the original operation requirements. The gloves come off. Rick Fontain is told to do whatever it takes to get Stinger into the hands of the Afghan Freedom Fighters.In 1985, Pakistan's President Zia finally OK's the American plan to provide the Stinger technology to the Mujahideen. American Special Forces, the Green Beret and DELTA, are assigned to the training center at the ISI's Ojhri Camp. The CIA's LTC Jim Pezlola and CWO Gary Larson solicit the Mujahideen Command to provide students for the very first class of Stinger shooters.Rick takes the graduating class into Afghanistan to the Russian airbase at Bagram. The rest, as they say, is history. Operation Cyclone may not have ended the Cold War, but it certainly weakened the Soviet Union's resolve. So much so, that in 1993 it financially collapsed.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - A modern military techno-thriller of intelligence, betrayal, covert operations, and great-power confrontation. The war has already begun. It is not being fought on a single battlefield. It is moving through intelligence networks, financial systems, political institutions, bio-research laboratories, classified military programs, and hidden alliances between Beijing, Moscow, and Tehran. In Mindset: The Invisible War, retired intelligence operator Rick Fontain is pulled back into the shadows when a high-risk extraction from China exposes a secret powerful enough to alter the balance of world power. What begins as the rescue of a hunted scientist and her family becomes the opening move in a global confrontation involving biological secrets, compromised officials, covert influence networks, Iranian nuclear ambitions, Chinese military escalation, and a political crisis unfolding inside Washington itself. From the South China Sea to Tehran, from the halls of Congress to the underground command center known as the Bat Cave, Fontain and his IBS team uncover the architecture of an invisible war - one fought through deception, surveillance, compromised institutions, and operations the public will never see. As America's enemies coordinate across continents, the line between intelligence gathering and direct action disappears. A Chinese spy network is active inside the United States. Iran is hiding a nuclear capability beneath the mountains. Washington is fractured. And the people responsible believe they are untouchable. They are wrong. Written in the tradition of Tom Clancy, W.E.B. Griffin, Mark Greaney, and Jack Carr, Mindset: The Invisible War delivers a hard-edged military and espionage thriller built around real-world strategic pressure points, advanced operational systems, submarine warfare, covert extraction teams, political intrigue, and the kind of backroom decisions that shape history before anyone knows they were made. This is fiction. But the vulnerabilities are real.…
