Showing titles in Terrorism

Seven years after the 9/11 attacks, the hunt for Osama bin Laden is as relentless as ever. Yet there are more objectives than the hunt for infamous mass murderer. The four-man Ranger fireteam led by Captain Robert Cash, with newly married Lieutenant Jack Grant his second-in-command, discover the enemy comes in many guises. On a search and destroy mission in the northern city of Mazari Sharif, a woman falsely alleges the Rangers have invaded the home of an innocent Afghan businessman, murdered him, and raped his wife.

In the near-future, eco-terrorism against major fossil and nuclear energy facilities is widespread. At the same time, Badger Energy, the latest company formed by energy entrepreneur and climate change activist, Richard Strossel, is developing a new technology that uses high-temperature superconductors to store enough renewable wind and solar energy to power a city reliably. However, these systems can be made to explode with energy release equivalent to a tactical nuclear weapon.
