An aging Coast Guard cutter is all that stands between the world and nuclear war.

As NATO and Russia edge toward open conflict in Europe, a Russian bomber collides with a U.S. fighter off the coast of Florida. In the chaos, a nuclear?tipped hypersonic missile is accidentally launched -- and vanishes from the sky.

Days later, the USCGC Kauai finds a drug?laden sailboat smashed and adrift north of the Florida Keys. The wreckage tells a different story: the "lost" missile didn't harmlessly plunge into the Gulf of Mexico. It came down somewhere in the Keys.

Now the Kauai's crew is locked in a race against a vicious international crime syndicate to find the missing warhead first. If the wrong people get to it, the discovery of a single Russian nuke on American soil could ignite the war everyone fears.

Blending high?stakes action with authentic Coast Guard detail, Dagger Quest follows the friendship, tension, and courage of a small?ship crew pushed far beyond routine patrols. Readers who enjoy military and spy thrillers, sea adventures, and shows like Sea Patrol will feel right at home aboard the Kauai.

This is a military thriller adaptation of a SciFi novel previously published as Engage at Dawn: First Contact by Edward Hochsmann.
