"The whole of the West must suffer as we are suffering in Palestine…" The extremists have taken over. Again the weapon is oil. Masterminding the plan to destroy Israel, Sheik Gamal Tafak has hired professional terrorists – including LeCat, the French killer, and Winter, the enigmatic Englishman. 

          The action races from Cairo to Hamburg, Paris, London and California. The worldwide conspiracy unfolds. Russia and the West are stunned. A super-tanker bound for San Francisco is hi-jacked, armed with a nuclear bomb. The extremists sail for the Golden Gate Bridge, threatening to annihilate America’s most beautiful city. Only two people can turn the tide – Winter, professional adventurer, and Betty Cordell, expert markswoman.
