Mischief Island

By Robert Lance

China has constructed artificial islands in the South China Sea-one of the most important shipping channels in the world. As if this weren't troubling enough, they've weaponized these islands, reinforcing their grip on the region. One island in particular-Mischief Island-is chosen as the site for a nuclear-weapon arsenal, and tensions in the international community immediately reach critical levels. The Chinese sink a Philippine Navy vessel in an attempt to cover up the location of their arsenal, and war seems all but inevitable. Now, the US president must coordinate a daring covert Navy SEAL mission to neutralize the nuclear weapons on Mischief Island and prevent World War III. However, complex dynamics within the SEAL team threaten to compromise the whole operation, pushing the doomsday clock ever closer to midnight. With a premise torn from modern geopolitics, Mischief Island is a high-stakes thriller that feels uncomfortably plausible. Robert Lance writes with incredible accuracy about the US military chain of command and operational logistics. He offers a chilling snapshot of what very well may come to pass in the near future.
