VOLCANO by Rosa Turner Boschen
A tautly written political thriller, first published one year prior to September 11, 2001, and eerily predictive of future events.
A re-release of the year 2000 award-winning novel.
Thirteen days before the end of 2001 an alliance of Chinese and Middle Eastern terrorists has an unholy plan to blow democracy out of the water. American intelligence is under siege and so is Division Chief Mark Neal's marriage. When strange things start happening at home, Ana steps away from her maternity leave to accept a secret mission. With a time-bomb ticking, can Mark and Ana both save their troubled relationship—and avert an international crisis?
"Volcano is an intense suspense thriller that has everything. It has strong characters in Ana, Mark and Ana's father. The minor characters only add to the plot. If you're looking for a book that will keep you on the edge of your seat, this is it." ~ Hattie Boyd, Scribes World
"The author's powerful voice once again presents a deftly woven, action packed, heart-stopping tale of espionage. Her deep understanding of the weaknesses in US information systems, of foreign powers, and of personal motivations make VOLCANO not only a plausible tale of espionage, but also an addictive read. Even the secondary characters are richly developed, sympathetic even as they commit tragic errors." ~ Cindy Penn, Senior Editor World Weaving
"This is another excellent novel from this author. She knows her way around Washington, the story is plausible with good characters, and, for a political junkie like me, it's more than juicy enough. Highly recommended." ~ Paul Lappen, Dead Trees Book Reviews
"A taut adventure/thriller that will keep you riveted to your chair." ~ Steven Lopata, CompuServe Book Reviews
