Description of: Caught In The Web

TWA 800 EXPLODES OVER NEW YORK

The frightening headline touched us all.  Was there a cover-up as many feel?  There were many factors and witnesses that were conflicting.  We can only speculate as to the true cause of this disaster.  Is the public being protected from panic?  Is Boeing being protected because of their importance as the world's largest aircraft builder?  Are the very airlines we depend upon being saved from merciless scrutiny?  Yes, mysterious and intriguing both.  The public will probably never know.  Could a new weapon of terror have been instrumental?

This novel will delve into the subject, the highly possible cause being that of a new weapon that could easily create havoc in the international community.   A weapon of potential terror that could ground the earth-girdling airline industry and bring international travel to a dead stop at the will of terrorists.

This fast-paced thriller exposes the harsh reality of political savagery and international intrigue.  The spine-chilling scheme to unseat the President of the United States and derail Mid-East peace talks is inadvertently uncovered by Laura Reese.   She had been retained to design an element, which, unknown to her initially, is the external component for a new pulse laser.  This weapon will be used to destroy an airliner bringing the Israeli delegation to the United States for the initialing of peace accords with Syria and Iraq.  Laura consults Professor George Robinson (Robby) regarding specialized engineering for her project.  They become personally involved as they attempt to unravel the covert plot.

The President's political future is in danger as his adversary, Senator Ted Case, uses his resources in attempting to seize the power of the White House.   Case's goal is to humiliate the President and thwart the peace initiative, likely erupting the Mid-East into war.  Laura, Robby, and the FBI intervene and attempt to expose the mastermind behind the diabolical plot.

This page-turner is guaranteed to captivate the reader.  It contains personal insight, political intrigue, murder, and current factual issues which surround the recent TWA 800 explosion.

The weapon illustrated in this novel is mythical but under current development by our government and may have already been brought to tactical use.
