Amid the Canary Islands lies the massive crater of the volcano Cumbre Vieja. Scientists theorize that one day the volcano will erupt, triggering a series of events that will lead to a tsunami higher than any in recorded history. This mega-tsunami, with waves of more than 150 feet in height, would ravage Europe, Africa, and ultimately the East Coast of the United States, causing immeasurable loss of life and destruction . . .After Professor Paul Landon, the world's most prominent geophysicist, is found with a bullet in his head, it is discovered that Ravi Rashood—America's nemesis and the former SAS officer who is now the head of Hamas—has hatched a diabolical plot against the West: to fire a nuclear-tipped guided cruise missile—Scimitar SL-2, named for the curved sword of the Muslim warrior Saladin—into Cumbre Vieja.United States Admiral Arnold Morgan, the retired National Security Adviser, and the Pentagon know it's not a joke when Rashood, accompanied once again by his wife, the Palestinian Shakira, explodes Mount St. Helens. Morgan knows something even more horrific is to come.But stopping them won't be easy.Rashood and his Hamas crew are deep in the ocean, in an undetectable sub, which he managed to procure from Russia via communist China.

“A genuine blockbuster . . . With this novel, Sean Flannery takes his rightful place along such masters as Tom Clancy and Clive Cussler.” —Ed Gorman, Mystery SceneThe Cold War is over—followed by a deadlier menace than the world has ever known. Its codename: Operation Homeward Bound. Deep within the KGB, a dedicated fraternity conspires to restore the power of its fragmented homeland. Brutal, power-crazed, ruthlessly efficient, these renegade agents want nothing less than the destruction of the US.To insure its mission, this sinister coterie will use every weapon available. Torture. Murder. Even the family of a US security adviser.“Not only do Flannery’s spy thrillers have the ring of truth; sometimes they become the truth. Let’s hope Moving Targets remains fiction.” —Dean Ing, New York Times–bestselling author“Full of intriguing, fully drawn characters from both sides of the old cold war . . . [A] clever and thoroughly believable painting of interagency warfare, diverted loyalties, and political confusion in our time. Quite good.” —Kirkus Reviews
