Shadow Flight Joe Weber 9780586213766

An explosive thriller from the best-selling author of Defcon One.

As Congress debates the merits of the Stealth bomber, sinister forces have their own goals in mind. During a training exercise, a B-2 bomber disappears.

When search efforts produce no evidence the bomber crashed, the US Air Force has no choice but to acknowledge that one of its most secret and high-tech aircraft has been hijacked.

Intelligence leads to what would first seem to be a very unlikely suspect: Cuba. But could the tiny nation pull off a theft of this magnitude? And what might its plans be for the highly sought-after aircraft? Getting the answers to these questions becomes the top-secret mission for CIA agent Steve Wickham. For without those answers, only one solution will remain: invasion. And if the US invades, World War III will certainly follow.

As a former fighter pilot, Joe Weber knows his subject well. He served in the United States Marine Corps from 1970-1975. A carrier-qualified fighter/attack trained pilot, he graduated first in his class from advanced naval jet pilot training in Texas, in 1972. After his release from active duty, he flew commercially until 1989 when his first novel was published.

His novels have appeared on the bestseller lists of the New York Times, Publishers Weekly, the Associated Press, and the Chicago Tribune

Mr. Weber is a native of Enid, Oklahoma, and lives near Pensacola, Florida, with his wife Jeannie.
