When virtually all of the political and military leadership of
Pakistan are wiped out by a terrorist attack at the inauguration
ceremony of a new President, a race begins to seize control of the
country's vulnerable cache of nuclear weapons. CIA agent Grant
Stearns and the Team Six Navy SEALs are sent on a mission to secure
the top secret Wah nuclear munitions center (near the infamous
Osama Bin Laden compound in Abbottabad) and unlock the mysterious
Chaklala Codes - the encrypted keys to Pakistan's nuclear weapons -
before anyone else gets ahold of them. Stearns and his team are
pitted against a wide array of foes - from the radical jihadist
Lakshar-e-Taiba (who were responsible for the deadly attacks on
Mumbai India) to a strike force of Iranian Quds Special Forces --
all of whom are determined to seize the prize of Pakistan's nuclear
weaponry. Working against both a ticking clock and the treachery of
the Pakistan's ISI intelligence agency, not to mention the
bureaucratic red tape of their own government, Stearns and the
SEALS use every resource that they can bring to keep the dangerous
nukes out of the hands of America's enemies. The Chaklala Codes is
the second in a series of international political thrillers by
award-winning author and political insider Hoyt Hilsman. The first
in the series, 19 Angels was widely acclaimed, with critics calling
it: "A perfect political thriller...""a dynamic hero, a canyon of
exotic locales and verbal jousting between protagonists that
ultimately provides the fuel that keeps one reading" "a compelling
international thriller that kept me turning the pages right to the
end"
