The Shadow Master

The Shadow Master (a.k.a. Overlay)

Armageddon is coming and only one man can stop it!

Defense ministers in Arab nations are systematically assassinated. All eyes stare suspiciously at Israel. The Middle East is a powder keg ready to explode. Only a handful of covert U.S. government officials are aware that the heads of Russia and China are targeted next-and that the elderly and senile American ex-President is responsible.

Rance Colby, the man who never existed-presumed dead-and torn by internal demons, enlists the only men he can trust . . . the Chairman of The Joint Chiefs and the highest ranking Russian General . . . to aid him in stopping the real brains behind the assassinations and to help kidnap the Russian president without him realizing he was kidnaped.

Rance is aware of the thin sheet of plastic called an overlay. When placed over the map of the Middle East, it pinpoints the countries scheduled for assassinations.

Trapped in the Great Khufu Pyramid, blown up on an isolated Greek island, attacked repeatedly by assassins, kidnapping the Russian President-Rance's life hangs in the balance in the icy waters below Norway's Pulpit Rock-Rance and his team provide all the ingredients of an intriguing international political suspense-thriller with general mass appeal.
