Third Cloud

Army Intelligence Captain Michael McCloskey arrives home to San Francisco, California after resigning from his Army commission. His father is about to retire from the position of the city''s Police Commissioner. On that occasion, Michael and his mother wanting to surprise him, invite his former Army Air Force buddies with whom he served during World War Two.

After sending out the invitations, a chain reaction is about to begin. Several of the invited former soldiers are mysteriously being murdered by ruthless assassins.

A horrible tragedy awaits those who participate at the party and Michael is among the few survivors. After an attempt on his life, he is more than anxious to begin his own investigation. Unexpectedly he is summoned to the National Security Agency, and along the way he finds out personal facts about himself he wouldn''t even dare to dream about.

His investigation of a mysterious airplane began with his kidnapping to Russia, then his journeys to Italy with his Russian cooperators, to Japan and finally to the Mariana Islands in the Pacific.

Unknown assassins following him throughout Italy and Japan. Meanwhile a formerly unknown terrorist organization explode bombs in different cities around the United States. Their goal is to blackmail Michael and the US Government to release those documents in Michael''s possession and later on, to get Michael himself.

He learns about the possibilities of another holocaust, which he must alone try to prevent. First there was the Enola Gay and then there was the Bock''s Car. What if there was another airplane, a third one. Everyone knows about the mushroom clouds over Hiroshima and Nagasaki, but what if only a selected few knows about a third plane or a possible third bomb?

Throughout his investigation and journeys, he encounters friendships and betrayals, assassins and heroes, and finds true love.

But most of all, Michael must race against time to find out the truth about a third plane and it''s whereabouts before the terrorist do, and to find the woman he is willing to die for.
