Description

Veteran author Richard P. Henrick has three million books in print -- and a steadily-selling Zebra backlist. Like the mega-blockbusters of Tom Clancy, "When Duty Calls" is an action-packed, technologically authentic thriller about a U.S. Seal team mission to disable the world's first laser battle station. The odds of their success are a million to one -- but the price of failure is Armageddon!
