Aftermath 1st edition

A few short months have passed since Agent Barton and Arthur Mason (Ahmad), fled Turkey and the failed attempt at preventing an Al Qaeda plot to assassinate a prominent religious leader. Arthur has taken up residence in an apartment complex in Oxnard, California, courtesy of the U. S. government in hopes of leaving his past behind and assimilating into American culture. His fiancée Belinda Johnson (Behrukh), and her family (mother and brother) were also relocated. Arthur's new job with a local delivery company seems innocent enough until he meets an unsavory character that blinds his common sense with the promise of quick cash. Arthur's motivation to marry his fiancée, buy a home and live the American dream drives his decision, but there is no turning back. While the whole world is focused on the horrific events in Turkey and the impending response, the CIA is thrust into investigating and averting an impending terrorist attack of epic proportion. The terrorist chatter indicates a possible attack on one of the 104 commercial nuclear facilities in the US. Newly promoted CIA Director of Domestic Terrorism, Marks tasks former Delta Force operative Special Agent Barton as his lead man to head the investigation. Time is of the essence as the agency realizes the magnitude and destruction of a nuclear meltdown. Can he identify the target and the players in time to avert the menacing plot?
