When former CIA operative James Connery receives an encrypted call at 4:23 AM, he's thrust back into a deadly world he tried to escape. His handler, the enigmatic Melania Vasquez supposedly dead for over a year needs his help to stop Peter Maclean, a ruthless arms dealer with access to weapons-grade plutonium and a personal vendetta. Set against the backdrop of Manhattan's gleaming towers and shadowy underground networks, MISSION NYC delivers a white-knuckle thriller where international espionage collides with nuclear terrorism. As Connery navigates deadly encounters from Central Park to Federal Hall, he must prevent a radiological attack that could contaminate America's financial capital and kill hundreds of thousands of innocent civilians. This explosive spy thriller combines authentic intelligence tradecraft with pulse-pounding action as Connery uncovers a sophisticated conspiracy involving hostile foreign governments, corrupt diplomats, and weapons of mass destruction. From the diplomatic corridors of the United Nations to the industrial wasteland of Queens, MISSION NYC escalates into a desperate race against time where every decision could mean the difference between saving New York City or watching it become a radioactive wasteland. Perfect for fans of Tom Clancy, Daniel Silva, and Jason Bourne, this gripping novel exposes the hidden war being fought in America's shadows by operatives whose names will never appear in history books but whose actions determine whether civilization survives. A masterfully crafted thriller that will keep you reading late into the night.
