Publisher Description
New York Times bestselling author Dale Brown goes beyond the headlines in this high-tech, high-tension military thriller in which a resurgent Russia enflames sectarian unrest and violence in Ukraine and Poland, setting off a stealth robotic war and escalating an international crisis.
In the spring of 2017, the U.S. economy is rebounding under President Stacy Anne Barbeau, the country’s first female president. But her leadership is about to be severely tested: Russian president Gennadiy Gryzlov has sent Special Troops, disguised as pro-Russian activists, into Ukraine and Moldova. Though NATO is outraged, its response is tepid. Refusing to let Russian aggression go unpunished, former U.S. president Kevin Martindale approaches Polish president Peter Wilk with a radical solution: a counterattack using a covert force of Cybernetic Infantry Device (CID): manned robots.
Underwritten by the wealthy Wilk, Operation Iron Wolf is launched—without the knowledge of the Americans or its NATO partners. The CID’s initial strikes are successful, infuriating Gryzlov and propelling President Barbeau to pledge western help to investigate the attack. With international tensions at the boiling point, Martindale’s secret alliance, supported by the best military technology, is determined to outmaneuver the Russians.
In this battle that will determine the fate of Eastern Europe, just which side will win?

Yin & Yang
No, I didn't stay up all night-- nor did I read all day. But this book was addictive. Whenever I had some time; which I often found by procrastinating on other "to dos", I was back to this book. Too many superlatives to list--that none would suffice to commend the author and this thriller. The characters on both sides were equally despicable. While the good guys and gals were praise worthy. If you are a novice in military weapons, current and futuristic, this will peak most readers knowledge, interest and demand for more. As I read, I often visualize the action and environment. This book had me reading slower than normal so that I could blend into the dramatic action. While I read this at home, this would be great to take along on a flight, cruise or days at the beach. Thank you for a great experience.
