The Gulf (Dan Lenson, #2)

For Lenson and his men, however, the danger is only just beginning. When a missile from hit-and-run enemy sinks a U.S. destroyer, every ship and aircraft in the area goes on red alert.

As all hands prepare for the inevitable showdown with a hostile Middle Eastern nation, Benjamin Shaker, the destroyer's hair-trigger captain, plots his own secret form of revenge. If he isn't stopped, it will soon mean disaster for the entire Gulf region--and maybe the world.
