"Smart, slick and exciting as hell. Castle Bravo is one great read. Karna Small Bodman has an insider's feel for the corridors of power. As you quickly turn the pages, you will find yourself wondering if the book is truth or fiction. A winner." -Christopher Reich, New York Times bestselling author

Samantha Reid, White House Director of Homeland Security, receives intelligence about a potentially devastating kind of terror attack: the detonation of a small nuclear device high in the atmosphere, which would create an Electro-Magnetic Pulse and fry all electronics on the ground. No electricity. No transportation. No communication. Complete chaos. Samantha is shaken by the implications-but unfortunately, no one else in the White House is taking her concerns seriously.

Meanwhile Samantha's boyfriend, oil executive Tripp Adams, travels overseas on a business trip-and finds himself in a foreign country where a hostile group is planning the very attack Samantha fears. Can Samantha stop the attack-and save the love of her life-before it's too late?
