The Swastika Strain

Book excerpt: Long after the end of WWII, Dr. Franz Ehrlich is still fighting for Nazi Germany, and his Swastika Strain is nearly ready. Soon it will be possible for one person with an aerosol dispenser to destroy the entire adult population of an area the size of New York City. The United States has two options commission a small commando team to stop Ehrlich and destroy his laboratory in Vietnam or launch a nuclear strike on the research complex.

But something happens to his mercenaries and Pierce is forced to recruit four Vietnam War veterans who are touring the country. But time is running out. The countdown to a nuclear strike begins.
