The Dreamland special ops team uncover a plan to stir up unrest between Taiwan and mainland China - in the latest high-octane adventure from the acclaimed author of Flight of the Old Dog and Air Battle Force.
Dreamland is a cutting-edge weapons research facility in the Nevada desert - home to some of the world's finest pilots and an elite combat unit that operates directly at the command of the US President.
Dreamland is rocked by the news that someone in the South China Sea has developed an unmanned spy plane as advanced - and dangerous - as their own top-secret Flighthawk. Has there been a breach of security? With a high-level summit between Taiwan and mainland China looming and such a potentially devastating weapon on the loose, the threat to the region's fragile stability is immense. While the hunt for a mole threatens all their achievements, the Dreamland team must embark on the race of their lives: to seek out their mysterious rival - and destroy it.
The hunt is on for a mystery weapon that has been shooting down American planes over Iraq - in this spectacular thriller, the third in a new series of high-tech, high-action adventures from the author of Flight of the Old Dog and Wings of Fire.
Hidden in the Nevada desert is Dreamland - an advanced research centre dedicated to developing artillery and aircraft that push beyond the cutting edge. It is also home to Whiplash - a covert team of special forces trained to deploy the high-tech weapons in extreme situations.
Whiplash's latest mission begins when a series of American planes are shot down over Iraq in mysterious circumstances. There is no way that conventional weapons could have hit the planes so easily. Can the Iraqis have developed a laser capable of causing such mayhem? Fearing a major international crisis, the President sends a call out to Dreamland. Within hours, some of the most sophisticated aircraft in the world are heading for the Gulf, with orders to track down the mystery weapon - and destroy it.
The fiasco of a spy’s infiltration has the Pentagon looking for an excuse to close Dreamland down. To clean up the mess—and save Dreamland from the Congressional chopping block—Lt. Colonel William Tecumseh “Dog” Bastian is sent in. He’s just the guy to shake things up…and does when a situation erupts in Somalia. Into a hotter-than-hot war zone, he sends his own daughter—the pilot of a Megafortress bomber—and a high-tech, unmanned flight system that could make or break the future of Dreamland…
