SecondWorld

SecondWorld (#220), a thriller by Jeremy Robinson does not stop.  Only a few pages into the book his hero,  Lincoln Miller, has already escaped from the undersea research station just off the Florida coast where his superiors at NCIS have sent him for an enforced vacation.  It just wasn't built to survive the impact of a dead blue whale.  When he reaches the surface, the former SEAL is ready to do battle with the polluters who caused the massive fish kill.  But the sky is red, and raining what appears to be blood, and its effect will literally take your breath away...

When Miller reaches Miami in a drifting sailboat, almost everyone is dead, and those who are still alive are bent on killing him and the young burn victim he finds under an oxygen tent in one of Miami's hospitals.  They manage to make it out alive and find themselves in Washington, D.C. where Lincoln learns that Tel Aviv and Tokyo have also been wiped out.  The President appeals for his help and Miller gains an unlucky ally in Elizabeth Adler as they try to determine just who the enemy is, and how to stop them. 

The clue is SecondWorld.  The Nazis at the end of World War II had almost perfected an incredible weapon of destruction.  They needed more time to complete this project, but now they're ready and Miami, Tel Aviv and Tokyo are just demonstrations for what is in store for the rest of the world as they prepare for the rise of the Fourth Reich.  The Nazis have carefully laid their plans for seventy years and infiltrated every level of government, science and business, hiding in plain sight.  Miller and Adler  have only five days to stop them...

Put your internal Fact Checker on hold, and just enjoy the ride.  You might want to zap some popcorn first!
