Книга: Shadow command

General Patrick McLanahan returns in a battle to expose the corruption at the heart of the American government. McLanahan's provocative Aerospace Battle Force has grown into a fully fledged task force, based in orbit on the Armstrong Space station. However, their successful defeat of the Iranian threat is making people nervous. Apparently under pressure from the Russians, the UN and the liberal press, newly elected President Joseph Gardener cuts their funding and fires McLanahan, branding him an obstacle to the peace process. What the public doesn't know is that Gardener is being blackmailed by the Russians who hold damning evidence against him.
