The Cold War brought the world to the brink of nuclear Armageddon. But it was also responsible for the development of a different kind of weapon.The new device was stealthy, instantaneous, and absolutely devastating.Fortunately, it was also lost. Until Now...Michael Chase survived China. Barely. But now he has bigger problems. A pair of coordinates broadcast on an encrypted frequency have brought him to Istanbul where his father has left a message for him. Michael's mission is to find a device so immensely powerful that if it isn't located quickly, the global balance of power will shift forever. But nothing is easy and now Michael has enemies. He doesn't only need to find the device. He needs to find it before the Green Dragon Group hunts him down.Michael and the Dragons aren't the only ones searching. Meryem Demir is a Turkish Intelligence Agent. She didn't ask for the assignment, and she certainly didn't ask to be paired with Michael, but choice is a luxury Meryem doesn't have. Together, Meryem and Michael form an uneasy alliance taking them from the crowded bazaars of Istanbul all the way to the lonely shores of the Southern Mediterranean in search of the lost device. Of course finding the missing weapon is only half the battle. Preventing its use is the real struggle and when an old acquaintance enters the fray, Michael must decide who to put his faith in -- his newfound partner or a dangerous ghost from the past?If Michael chooses poorly, the weapon will be activated and millions of innocent lives will be wiped out in seconds. And if he chooses wisely, he may never see his father again.ABOUT:Blown Circuit is the second spy thriller in the bestselling Michael Chase Circuit Series.
