What if the Japanese had succeeded in its atomic weapon program in World War II? And one of the results of that program now lies at the base of the Golden Gate Bridge? By the New York Times bestselling author and Special Operations Veteran.

Library Journal: "A heart-pounding thriller. The panorama of modern warfare and the details of hand-to-hand combat encounters add excitement. Inventive, entertaining, and realistic adventure. Highly recommended."

August 1945. As Russian forces surge into North Korea, a desperate Japanese naval officer races against time to evacuate a mysterious crate from Hungnam. The cargo is so valuable that its discovery could change the course of history -- a Japanese nuclear bomb, lost to the world for over half a century.

Fifty-two years later, North Korea has found the hidden weapon.

From the shadowy depths of Tokyo's criminal underworld to the treacherous mountains of North Korea, THE GATE races against a ticking clock as modern-day warriors fight to prevent a catastrophe decades in the making. With North Korean forces closing in, time running out, and loyalties constantly tested, one thing becomes clear: some secrets are worth dying for, and some are too dangerous to ever see the light of day.

From New York Times bestselling author Bob Mayer comes a heart-pounding military thriller that blends historical intrigue with pulse-pounding action. Meticulously researched and relentlessly paced, THE GATE explores the shadowy possibilities of Japan's secret nuclear program and asks the chilling question: what if the weapon they built in 1945 is about to be used today?

Perfect for fans of Tom Clancy, Brad Thor, and Vince Flynn.
