State-of-the-art action in the air, on land and at sea as the USA is drawn into conflict with China in this spectacular new novel from an acclaimed master of the modern action-thriller.

‘When a former pilot with years of experience turns his hand to writing thrillers you can take their authenticity for granted. His writing is exceptional and the dialogue, plots and characters are first-class… far too good to be missed.’ Sunday Mirror

Admired for their authenticity and breathtaking scenes of aerial combat, Dale Brown’s bestselling thrillers – which include the classic Flight of the Old Dog and, most recently, Shadows of Steel – offer high-action entertainment, cutting-edge technology and insights into the world of international power politics to match the very best of Tom Clancy, Stephen Coonts and Larry Bond.

In Fatal Terrain, which takes place shortly after the events of Shadows of Steel, Taiwan’s formal declaration of independence from mainland China brings the threat of major conflict to the Pacific. As China prepares to send an invasion force into Taiwan, the US president once again calls on his own tried and trusted secret strike force… But it may be the final mission for Patrick McLanahan, Brad Elliott, Jon Masters and their high-tech EB-52 Megafortress – the ‘Old Dog’ itself.
