Ultimatum — R.J. Pineiro

Saddam Hussein is on the move again, this time armed with nuclear missiles. Purchased from a former Soviet republic and hidden beneath Iraqi sands, Saddam's new atomic arsenal points toward Tel Aviv and Tehran.

But more than the Middle East is in danger, for Saddam's plans threaten America itself with nuclear destruction.

The tension is pushed to the boiling point when Saddam's guns begin shooting down American planes in the Middle East. Aimed at provoking a new Gulf War, he leaves President Clinton no choice but to respond.
