A US Black Ops team races to China to rescue captured agents and disarm a nuke is this action-packed thriller by a New York Times–bestselling author.“Weisman’s vigorous book makes a Tom Clancy novel read like something that wouldn’t make it through basic training.” —All Things Considered, NPR“Nobody writes better about the dark, dirty, and dangerous world of the CIA and Black Ops. . . . The pace never slows.” —Joseph WambaughOn the eve of a groundbreaking U.S.–China summit, a covert CIA black ops team assigned to bug a Chinese nuclear test site is captured by Islamic terrorists. An explosive situation goes from bad to catastrophic when the terrorists ambush a Chinese army convoy, highjack a highly unstable nuclear device . . . and arm it. On orders from the President, Major Michael Ritzik, the young CO of a top-secret element of the Army’s elite Delta Force, must lead his men on an impossible rescue/disarmament mission—even as Beijing dispatches its own special forces to deal with the impending threat. Ritzik and his shadow warriors will need to employ speed, surprise, and violence of action to beat the Chinese to the target, free the captives, disarm the nuke, and escape without leaving any fingerprints. Failure is not an option—because the unthinkable has suddenly become a very real possibility.“Soar reads like a heat-seeking missile. . . .
