PANTEX: The Radical Right Gone Wrong
Description
The plot: a psychotic arms dealer seizes on separatist fervor in Texas to stage the crime of the 21st Century.
The target: Pantex, the world's largest nuclear weapons depot, operated near Amarillo by the Department of Energy, not the Department of Defense.
The ruse: use a private militia, filled with delusions of blackmailing Washington for a new republic.
The real goal: spirit warheads and plutonium cores overseas.
With local authorities overwhelmed and the military hours away, only an undercover FBI agent stands between a secure world and global nuclear chaos.
