Here, available for the first time together, are three of Stephen Coonts' bestselling novels in one blockbusting package.
'Fortunes Of War'
After the collapse of their economy, fanatic Japanese nationalists take matters into their own hands and with the approval of the Prime Minister launch an attack on Russia. Bound by secret protocol to come to Russia's aid in the even of war, the US government sends Air Force Colonel Bob Cassidy and a squadron of F22s to thwart the Japanese in the skies over Siberia.
The operation brings Cassidy one on one with Captain Jiro Kimura, flying Japan's most secret weapon. Japan's goal is world domination, the price a third world war . . . all that stand between Kimura and the completion of his mission is Cassidy, a man he once counted his best friend.
'Cuba'
Castro is dying and Cuba's people face an uncertain future, bereft of the dictator's guiding vision for the first time in 40 years. Aleljo Vargas, Minister for Security, wishes to rule a prosperous Cuba with a strong hand. He envisions a state capable of protecting its interests with Scud 1 missiles full of deadly disease, missiles left behind by the Soviets. If necessary, he'll fire them at Miami and Atlanta to prove his resolve.
Unaware of the turmoil in Cuba, Rear Admiral Jake Grafton, commander of the carrier "United States", is faced with a more immediate problem. He's overseeing the removal of biological warheads from the US Army base at Guantanamo Bay, warheads which the Cubans never knew were there. When Castro dies and one of the warheads is stolen, a frantic race ensues to prevent the launch of the missiles and the destruction of Cuba's hopes and dreams.
'Hong Kong'
The US Consul-General in Hong Kong, Virgil "Tiger" Cole, was Jake Grafton's bombardier-navigator during the Vietnam War, and both have come a long way since. Grafton has risen to Rear Admiral, commanding a US aircraft carrier; Cole has become an internet billionaire, and a major political donor.
Now something is going wrong in Hong Kong. A CIA agent is dead, as is a Chinese fixer too-closely associated with Cole. Grafton, his Chinese-speaking wife Callie, and CIA agent Tommy Carmellini are sent to find out what is going on, and what they begin to uncover horrifies Grafton. For Cole is closely involved in a conspiracy, code-named The Scarlet Team, to overthrow the Chinese communist government.
Before long, Callie is kidnapped by members of The Scarlet Team, and as a revolution unfolds, Grafton faces a race against time to rescue his wife.
