The Damascus Factor — James Ward

A world famous Iranian physicist turned jihadi plots an attack on the world's satellite communications. Her plan will tear down the world's economy, killing hundreds of thousands of people in the process. Bob Steck and a newly formed clandestine service discover the plan and must stop the attack to save our way of life. The action takes place against the backdrop of Iran's repressive regime and spreads to war-torn Syria, Iraq and ISIS.
