National bestselling author Stephen Coonts is at it again! In The Russia Account (Regnery Fiction; August 13, 2019) Tommy Carmellini and Jake Grafton return for their ninth adventure together and unravel an international financial conspiracy that ties directly to Vladmir Putin and Russia. As the narrative unfolds the characters discover that money is being funneled all over the world with a bulk of it ending up in American accounts (many of which are registered to political campaigns). Sound familiar? While The Russia Account is a work of fiction, it tackles real concerns that Americans are being faced with today. The 2016 presidential elections sparked a lot of worries around Russian election meddling, collusion, and voter fraud, which remain prominent fears ahead of the 2020 presidential elections. However, if you thought those concerns were bad then think about how bad a real financial money-laundering crisis would be. Financial terrorism serves as the central theme of this book and should be a truly daunting concern for Americans. This new book raises alarming concern from Putin and Russia involving: Financial Terrorism - Often overlooked and the most concerning threat to America today! Russian Election Meddling Russian Hacking Voter Fraud

Have you heard Tom talk about how much he hates political correctness before? Probably not, right? Well it's not Frieda's favorite thing either. And speaking of not liking things, many Vietnam vets didn't love the experience of being shot at in a foreign jungle. No word on Stephen's attitude toward dengue fever, but it's probably not positive.

Eager to clear his name from the ignominy of his last stand - but forced to do so incognito, under the clever pseudonym Armstrong - Custer comes across evildoings in the mysterious Montana town of Bloody Gulch, which a ruthless Indian trader runs as his own personal fiefdom, with rumors of muder, slavery, and buried treasure. Armstrong is a rip-roaring tale of action, adventure, and hilarity as the ridiculously handsome, astonishingly brave, and highly susceptible milk-drinking cavalryman travels through the untamed West. The Custer of the West Series begins here - and it's a wild ride you won't want to miss.  "The world has a new hero - actually an old hero reimagined - George Armstrong Custer, in this delightfully funny alternative history that's better, or at least happier, than the real thing." - WINSTON GROOM, bestselling author of Forrest Gump and El Paso "Droll satire, this is the West as it might have been if the Sioux hadn't saved us." - STEPHEN COONTS, bestselling author of Flight of the Intruder and Liberty's Last Stand "If Custer died for our sins, Armstrong resurrects him for our delight. Not just the funniest book ever written about an Indian massacre, but laugh out loud funny, period. The best historical comic adventure since George MacDonald Fraser's Flashman." - PHILLIP JENNINGS, author of Nam-A-Rama and Goodbye Mexico "Crocker has created a hilarious hero for the ages. Armstrong rides through the Old West setting right the wrongs, and setting wrong the rights, in a very funny cascade of satire, history, and even patriotism." - ROB LONG, Emmy- and Golden Globes-nominated screenwriter and co-executive producer of Cheers What if Custer survived the Battle of the Little Bighorn? What if he became a gun-for-hire? And what if he made common cause with a troupe of cancan dancers, Chinese acrobats, an eyepatch-wearing rebel cardsharp, and a multilingual Crow scout?

STEPHEN COONTS is the New York Times bestselling author of more than thirty novels that have been translated and published around the world. A former naval aviator and Vietnam combat veteran, he is a graduate of West Virginia University and the University of Colorado School of Law. Listen in as he and our host Rodger Nichols talk about Coonts' new novel The Art of War and his first novel, Flight of the Intruder, published in September 1986 by the Naval Institute Press, and spent 28 weeks on the New York Times bestseller lists in hardcover. A motion picture based on this novel, with the same title, was released nationwide in January 1991 Book Synopsis:  The Chinese dragon is flexing its muscles. As its military begins to prey on neighbors in the South China Sea, attacking fishing vessels and scheming to seize natural resources, the US goes on high alert. But a far more ominous danger lurks closer to home: a Chinese sleeper cell has planted a nuclear weapon in the harbor at Norfolk, Virginia, the biggest naval base on the planet. The target: a secret rendezvous of the Atlantic Fleet aircraft carriers and their battle groups. When the CIA director is assassinated and Jake Grafton is appointed to take his place, he gets wind of the conspiracy, but has no idea when or where the attack will occur. In the meantime, a series of assassinations, including an attempt on the life of the President, shake the country and deliberately mask a far more sinister objective. Can Jake Grafton and his right hand man, Tommy Carmellini, stop the plot to destroy the US Navy? Author website:  http://www.coonts.com/ Author biography, bibliography and awards list: bit.ly/1oZcmt4
