Informationen zum Autor Dale Brown is the  New York Times  bestselling author of numerous books, from  Flight of the Old Dog  (1987) to, most recently,  Eagle Station  (2020). A former U.S. Air Force captain, he can often be found flying his own plane in the skies of the United States. He lives near Lake Tahoe, Nevada. Jim DeFelice  is the author of sixteen  New York Times  bestsellers, including  American Sniper , the basis for Bradley Cooper’s blockbuster movie of the same name. Some of his other credits include  Every Man a Hero , a bestselling account of Army medic Ray Lambert’s heroics at D-Day in World War Two, and  They Called Us Lucky , the story of Lima 3/25, the Marine Corps’ hardest hit unit in the Iraq War and the life of Congressman Ruben Gallego, a Harvard undergrad who joined the Corps to serve as an enlisted grunt. Klappentext When America is in peril, America's top-guns must answer the call. In the Nevada desert, the high-tech tools of tomorrow's wars are being conceived and tested at a top-secret military facility called Dreamland?where the impossible becomes reality. The weapon is codenamed "Razor"?the brainchild of the brilliant minds at Dreamland?a mobile chemical laser system with a range of 600 kilometers, capable of downing anything that flies. The destruction of an American aircraft over Northern Iraq suggests the inexplicable and unthinkable: a vengeful foe now possesses the lethal technology. It is a fear that draws an old warrior out of retirement, and sends Dreamland's best pilots to the skies to determine what the enemy has and to help take it away from him. But politics threatens to crush a covert engagement that must be won in the air and on the ground, unleashing a devastating rain of friendly fire that could ultimately annihilate a nation's champions ... and perhaps Dreamland itself.
