As leader of the Israeli submarine Tekumah, Commander Gilad has the sole authority to launch nuclear-tipped cruise missiles against cities housing millions. But while out at sea, the unthinkable occurs. Devastating nuclear explosions in Israel and attacks against Israeli embassies destroy any chance of peace in the Middle East.

Following the attacks, Gilad has no way to receive orders from civilian or military authorities, and must draw on all his training to lead his men and decide how and when to retaliate. Faced with a lengthy mission, food and fuel shortages, a fire, and an attack by a surface ship, Gilad struggles to maintain order.

As tensions rise, Gilad must persuade his own officers and crew, as well as the vengeful commander of a second Israeli submarine, of the path he has chosen. Sharon, a feisty female intelligence officer onboard, staunchly supports him as well as heroic crew members who stand ready to make the ultimate sacrifice. Now, with millions of lives at stake, Gilad has some hard choices to make, ones that may very well decide the fate of the free world.

Skip O'Neill lies dying of leukemia in a New York hospital, determined to live until the new millennium. His wasted body shows scant evidence of the man he once was-an Air Force fighter pilot and decorated combat veteran.

O'Neill's first assignment as a young lieutenant places him among hard drinking World War II-and Korean War-era fighter pilots who quickly teach him their ways. He almost washes out of pilot training but is persistent and manages to graduate. In Vietnam, he proves to be a skillful and courageous pilot who faces dangers of all kinds with equanimity. But the greatest-and most deadly danger-materializes years after O'Neill volunteers to be an observer at an atomic test site.

In the end, O'Neill decides that when his time comes, he will dash at it fearlessly. He anticipates being greeted by departed friends-but what awaits him is something totally unexpected.

The Crescent Moon Fox is a compassionate, heart-breaking, brutal, and occasionally, humorous, novel about Cypriot Turks. The reader experiences the lives of the inhabitants of one particular village during the lead-up to Independence from Britain and the tragic aftermath of the post-Colonial era in Cyprus - and in particular, of two of its young men: Zeki and Aydin. Zeki who, shaped and nurtured by the British Colonial system, is destined for great things; and Aydin, a misfit in his community who, in his own complex and disturbing way, achieves greatness and redemption. The span of the novel is from the nineteen thirties to the first decade of the twenty first century - showing the life of the Cypriot Turks, unique and distinct as a minority, in the lead-up to Independence and to what they become in the modern era. It gives a voice to Cypriot Turks, of all different backgrounds, and particularly to the illiterate rural women of the Colonial Era. The Crescent Moon Fox is also a poignant journey of discovery of one's true identity...

David Sternlight is a Wall Street executive, whose career is on the ropes despite numerous contributions to his former firm, Dean, Adams & Company. Now semi-retired, David stays active trading the markets; but has many internal battles raging under a calm exterior. His wife Eva is one of his few sources of comfort. After a celebratory party for the promotion of his ex-boss, Jack Howell, David is aggressively recruited to join a secretive government agency led by a shadowy figure named John McCabe. The reason is McCabe's belief that certain predictive applications of Sternlight's financial software, Excalibur, can be adapted to the war on terror. Without much choice, Sternlight agrees and sees an opportunity to do good things while also fighting the severe mental depression he suffers since the death of his son, Andy, in the 9/11 World Trade Center attacks. Meanwhile in Iraq, a young Muslim boy, Hassan al Hassan, tips off American soldiers as to the location of their kidnapped squad member, who is saved at the last minute, from beheading. As the boy grows older, his peaceful interpretation of Islam gives him many followers and he becomes a young Imam known as "The Boy Prophet." However, militant supporters of Jihad continue in the world, one of which is a young Palestinian doctor named Samir Hijami. The doctor plans a biological strike with an Ebola-like virus that he plans to take within him from Pakistan to London, and then on to Las Vegas. Self-infected, he carries the virus like a viral suicide vest. The biological attack is somewhat obscured by other lesser terrorist actions predicted by Excalibur and going on simultaneously. The new terror strategy is a main strike within numerous head-fakes for distraction. Due to miscalculations by Hijami, the main center of the virus outbreak prematurely becomes London. The culmination of many events leads to the intersection of good and evil, and a surprising reaction within the Muslim world. In the aftermath of the terrorist attacks and the ongoing influence of the Boy Prophet, Sternlight comes to grips with his strengths and weaknesses; and the realization that more battles will still follow.

Unfortunately for the pair, the drug ring leader vows to stop at nothing, even murder, to get his cache stateside.
