After flying A-6 Intruders in Vietnam and, seventeen years later, commanding an air wing aboard a super carrier in the Mediterranean, Jake Grafton–now grounded–is assigned to the Pentagon where he is in charge of developing the navy’s new top secret stealth attack plane, the A-12.
Faced with political and technical problems at every turn, Jake soon finds himself drawn into the hunt for the Minotaur, a mole hidden in the Pentagon who is giving America’s most precious defense secrets to the Russians. The FBI’s chief spy-catcher is hot on the Minotaur’s trail, or is he? Just who are the traitors in this Byzantine world of technocrats, politicians, and multi-billion dollar defense programs? Four people are dead and a test pilot is near death before Grafton hones in on the shocking identity of the Minotaur–and his even more chilling motive.
Combining authentic details of weapons strategies and stealth technology with an all-to-real story of the international trade in military secrets–and featuring the classic flying scenes that are Coonts’ trademark–THE MINOTAUR confirms that Stephen Coonts is a modern master of suspense.
