Nomad VI is a suspenseful spy novel about the most advanced
defensive weapons system ever developed by man, using the latest
advance in infrared and laser beam technology. Yet the State
Department decides to reveal it's existance to a special session of
the U.N. Security Council. Why? Dr. Alan Dempsy, originator of the
system and project director of Houston's Pioneer Institute of
Technology, finds himself faced with more than scientific problems
when mysterious tampering with the entry hatch of the Nomad sitting
on the launch pad at Cape Canaveral coincides with an unexplained
eagerness by the State Department to lift the secrecy veiling the
project, and in no less a manner than having Dempsy himself
disclose it to the UN. Thus begins an adventurous trip to New York,
involving a plot filled with continually surprising twists and
turns. Here is a well-written, well-constructed work with vividly
portrayed and fully formed characters. A complex story of loyalty
and betrayal, romance and seduction. The brutality of Vietnam and a
broken heart. Written in a strong and lively style, it goes deep
into, and offers the reader an inside look at the operatons of the
KGB, the FBI, the Pentagon, the Special Operations of the military
and Cape Canaveral. Graphic and gripping in it's description of
high-level espionage, it is both powerful and compelling. Set in
the Cold War Era, the thrilling ending will keep the readers on the
edge of their seat and give their heart a little faster beat.
