Overlord

For John Rourke, CIA-trained weapons and survival expert, it looked like a rendezvous with certain death. His arch-enemy Vladmir Karamatsov, armed with a devastating gas that can transmute normal men—and women—into homicidal, blood-crazed animals, is about to seize control of a huge nuclear arsenal. Like few men alive, John Rourke knows the full horror of thermonuclear war. Although the odds of survival, let alone success, have never been longer, he knows he has no choice but to attack and destroy this terrible threat.
