Publisher's summary

With an undeniable authority on the subject of all things nuclear, Robert Gleason brings listeners' worst fears surrounding nuclear terrorism to life in this character-driven thriller, And Into the Fire.

After allying itself with Pakistan’s intelligence services and notorious terrorist group, the Tehrik-e-Taliban-Pakistan (TTP), ISIS is ready to achieve its ultimate dream: Forcing the US into a clash of civilizations in the Mideast. The best way to accomplish this mission is to acquire three Pakistani nukes—then set them off in three US cities.

The head of the CIA’s Pakistan desk, Elena Moreno, and an intrepid journalist, Jules Meredith, are on their trail. Unfortunately, a powerful Saudi ambassador is blackmailing a corrupt American president, and now both men will do anything to stop these two women—to the point of having them killed. All the while, a notorious Pakistani terrorist, who twenty years ago was Elena’s college lover, is leading a highly skilled, highly trained terrorist team into the US. They are armed with three Hiroshima-style nukes and are hell-bent on incinerating the three American cities.

Can the two women stop them? The clock is ticking.

Critic reviews

Gleason is a bona fide expert on nuclear terrorism, and he utilizes his knowledge, along with his storytelling skills, to deliver a thriller that feels shockingly authentic. Military-action fans will relish this one as they shudder at its implications.” --Booklist (starred review)

“Robert Gleason’s latest novel, And Into the Fire, is more than a spectacular thriller: it’s essential reading. Apocalyptic, topical, and frighteningly authentic, here is a book that kept me turning pages deep into the night. Don’t miss this cautionary and important tale of where the world is headed.” —James Rollins, New York Times bestselling author of The Bone Labyrinth

"Not only the most terrifying, but also the most realistic nuclear-terror scenario I have encountered, whether on the page or in the Pentagon. Robert Gleason's decades of deep research into the dark realms of nuclear energy and weapons have yielded a superb thriller that reads swiftly but lingers long in the imagination. A rich plot, compelling characters and energetic writing combine to make And Into the Fire's nuclear nightmare a blast (pun fully intended)! It's a gripping read--and a primer on nuclear terrorism.” --Ralph Peters, three-time Boyd Award-winner, New York Times bestselling author of The Damned of Petersburg

Stick to editing. Writing is truncated.

Author obviously feels writing is a chore and one that needs to done expiditiously with a you get gist, you know what I mean, do I have to actually write it out tedium. Why not just give us the recipe...

What a waste

This is hands down the worst book I have ever read. Before reading the first 50 pages I wanted to throw it away, but I hung in there being sure it would get better. It did not. It got progressively worse right till the horrible end. I have no idea how such dribble got published. Very poorly written ramblings promoting the authors personal biased views of life. Very very loose on facts and reality.

It opens your eyes to what is possible

Any additional comments?

In the writing, it may not be as annoying, but in the audio, I don't need to hear a quote at the start of each chapter that I will hear in 45 seconds. It just go to be very repetitive.

And into the garbage can.

This book is so, so bad it's not even worth reviewing. Do not waste your time. It's comparison to The Stand is shameful.
