About this ebook
From the coauthor of the #1 New York Times bestseller American Sniper comes a heart-pounding military thriller in which the fabled Special Ops unit is activated to stop a group of terrorists from launching “suitcase” nukes somewhere in America.
When Chechen terrorists manage to smuggle a Cold War–era Russian nuke across the Mexican-American border, the President is forced to reactivate the only unit capable of stopping them: Navy SEAL sniper Gil Shannon and his brash team of SEALs and Delta Force fighters. First introduced in Sniper Elite: One-Way Trip, hailed by Publishers Weekly as a “meaty thriller” with “snappy dialogue and well-timed humor,” Shannon and his team were run out of the military after defying direct orders and instead choosing to save the life of one of their own.
In Target America, Gil and his team, many of whom had gone rogue, are reunited as an off-the-books Special Ops unit that must race against the clock to save the country from nuclear destruction.
#1 New York Times bestselling author Scott McEwen once again delivers a gripping and fast-paced adventure that illuminates the shadow world of clandestine military operations.

This book has very well written- it was exciting, fast paced, and exuded true military feel. I truly liked it, as the characters in the story felt very real. I recommend this book to fans of military thrillers. It is easily one of the best in this genre.

Superior book in many ways. Scary possible re nukes, and attributed attitudes of professional military. Duncan Campbell

Read One Way Trip first. This book continues the story of Master Chief Gil Shannon and his band of Patriots in pursuit of a loose nuke.
