Crisis Diplomacy — Don Pendleton

JUSTICE PROTOCOL

Terror hijacks an international conference on weapons of mass destruction in Stockholm when East Germans kidnap high-ranking government officials, including the U.S. vice president. And the ransom demand-a portion of each country's GNP-is enough to cripple the world's economies. Failure to comply ensures the hostages will be tortured and killed on a live video feed. Mack Bolan has to seize a narrow window of opportunity before the crisis spins out of control. But the tactically sophisticated terrorists stay one step ahead of him, moving the hostages to safe houses around the globe. In a cross-country blitz, he's obliged to confront friendly multinational forces converging in a desperate retaliation. Bolan negotiates the only terms the terrorists understand: certain death.
