Al-Qaeda has taken over the Middle East and control of the OPEC oil that is shipped to the United States. With the goal of a nuclear-armed United Middle East, Al-Qaeda plans to hold the United States hostage for nuclear weapons technology in exchange for oil. Osama Bin Laden, as supreme leader, sets some other ominous conditions as well. America must abandon its bases in the region, and Israel must leave the Middle East forever. The clock is ticking. When the United States is slow to act and the oil supply is cut off entirely, the former L-REDD (long-range explosives detection and detonation) team of renowned scientist Bradford Tully and his brilliant and beautiful partner Zeneca Lang-Tully, along with resourceful and skilled Sam Elson and Aldora Klein, steps in to take on this new challenge. Tasked with not only making the US OPEC oil independent, the team must also get bin Laden and free the Middle East from the grip of terrorists. With extremists in charge of a dangerous new government, law no longer exists, and the team will stop at nothing to defeat the terrorists and their continuing campaign of fear. Held Hostage is the thrilling new sequel to Wayne Pletcher's, The Campaign of Fear. A rousing and suspenseful thriller,Held Hostage brings a dangerous fictional scenario to life with a factual and even scarier basis in the real world. With a sense of determination, bravery, and skill, the US team must lead the charge to become independent of Middle East oil and thwart Al-Qaeda once and for all. Using fact-based fiction to suggest ways to solve our country's energy issues, Held Hostage offers an adept social commentary on one of the biggest issues facing the country. Acknowledging the level to which a nuclear-armed Middle East ruled by terrorists would affect the world, this thrilling novel creates a realistic and suspenseful scenario that engages the reader from the opening chapter.
