Ripped from today's most terrifying headlines, a pulse-pounding geopolitical thriller by a fresh new voice in fiction, Point of Entry is a story that will keep you reading long into the night. A terrorist attack on the United States is imminent. Renegade Syrian intelligence operatives have found the most effective way of smuggling 40 pounds of Uranium 235-the key material needed to build an atomic weapon-into the United States undetected. With calculated cunning, the terrorists hit upon exploiting a network of the most experienced, sophisticated smugglers the world has ever known... As the CIA repeatedly misinterprets numerous intelligence warnings, only the irresistible Marta Pradilla-Colombia's beautiful, tough, new female President, who has become a close friend of the conservative, isolationist U.S. President John Stockman-can help the U.S. find the terrorists and their deadly cargo before they can breach the point of entry, before it's too late. Set in Washington, Bogotá, Rome, and Tbilisi, and featuring appearances by major international figures such as Fidel Castro and the presidents of France, Syria, and many others, Point of Entry propels readers into an intensely treacherous world that reads less like fiction everyday. From remote international borders to covert government operations on the highest level, it is ultimately a story about the consequences of crossing boundaries. From a personal relationship between two world leaders that traverses beyond the politically acceptable, to the invisible border that may not be able to shield millions of innocent lives from the murderous intent of those with nothing to lose.
