About the Book

Treasure hunter, Steve Hendrick dives on the sunken Japanese ship Awa Maru, which was sunk by mistake by the U.S. Navy in 1945. This was a real incident - the U.S. Navy submarine commander was court martialed, and the United States apologized for this terrible event. Steve's quest for sunken treasure has cost him dearly. His brother was murdered by other divers who were also diving on the wreck. Steve doggedly continues his search but is confronted by pirates, the Chinese Navy, Russian SVR agents, and a Japanese terrorist who thinks he's a reincarnated Samurai warrior. In the process he meets a mysterious woman, Maggie Ramsey, who was a captive of the pirates. Steve finds a mysterious cylinder on the wreck of the Awa Maru, containing a message from Joseph Stalin, the head of the Soviet Union at that time, to the Prime Minister of Japan urging the Japanese to remain in the war against the United States. Stalin promises nuclear weapons to use against the Americans even though the Soviet Union didn't have any such weapons at that time. What is the significance of the message and why are the terrorists, and especially Maggie, so interested in it? Who is she working for? This leads to the desperate confrontation with the Japanese terrorists who intend to obliterate Tokyo and kill the heads of state at a G8 economic conference, which are the heads of state of the United States, Japan. United Kingdom, France, Germany, Canada, Italy, Russia, and the European Union. Steve and Maggie race to stop the Japanese terrorists from destroying Tokyo and plunging the world into a devastating crisis.
About the Author: John Campbell is the author of seven novels, a collection of short stories, and one nonfiction book. Using his experience as a U.S. Naval officer, and his extensive experience in the aerospace industry, he began his first novel in 1976 with a story about an attempt by North Korean special forces to hijack a U.S. nuclear aircraft carrier. Fifteen years later Raid On Truman was published in hardbound and paperback and was translated into Japanese for hardbound and paperback sales in Japan. That was the fulfillment of a dream to become a published novelist. He sold a second novel on the heels of the first. COBRA DANE was published in paperback in 1995. A third novel, Sub Zero, quickly followed and was published in 1996 along with publication in Japan. John has written four more novels, Vauclain's Shield, Hidden Sun, These Final Hours, and The Telekinetic Man and a screenplay derived from The Telekinetic Man and is in the process of trying to sell them. Another book was published in 2003 just before the Iraqi War. Desert War was a nonfiction look at how the war might be conducted, weapons systems, intelligence gathering, and forces on both sides. While John was the author, his daughter, Christine researched the work. Influenced initially by the works of Ian Fleming and his brand of no-holds-barred action and intrigue, John has tried to bring to readers that same action elements, but with a large dose of sobering reality. Violence has profound consequences and the characters within John's novels feel all the passion and agony of real people. Raid On Truman, COBRA DANE, Sub Zero, Vauclain's Shield, These Final Hours, The Telekinetic Man, and Hidden Sun are available on Amazon's Kindle Store. Note that COBRA DANE has for its cover image a picture of the actual COBRA DANE radar on the island of Shemya in the Aleutians. Vauclain's Shield's cover image has a photo of actual reentry vehicles passing through the atmosphere over Kwajalein Atoll in the South Pacific, and Raid On Truman has a real picture of the USS Harry Truman taken by the author. A collection of fourteen sci-fi/horror/paranormal short stories, A Case of the Vapors was added to the Kindle store in August 2013. These stories run the gamut from the humorous A Case of the Vapors to the somber, but hopeful, The Iron Sergeant. John's literary website is http: //johntcampbell.com/.
