Back from self-imposed exile, the Rogue Warrior enters a whole new phase of his amazing career. The threat this time is from domestic terrorists intent on a holy war -- military insiders gone bad -- and they possess suitcase-sized nuclear weapons.

Is he up to the challenge, or has the Rogue Warrior finally met his match?
Synopsis
The #1 New York Times bestselling mastermind behind the Rogue Warrior(R) strikes again with an all-new series of blazing adventures--starring a raucous cast of Navy Seals. Black Ops specialist and Seal Richard Marcinko "was too loose a cannon for the U.S. Navy" (People), but that hasn't stopped him from scoring nine consecutive New York Times bestsellers. Violence of Action is a masterpiece of suspense-laced action-adventure, a novel loaded with exciting new characters, high-tech military authenticity, and battle-tested grit. After a year of self-imposed isolation in the wake of carrying out a controversial assassination, the Rogue Warrior has emerged from the ashes to become a dynamic new force--and just in time. The new foe's opening blow is merely a bloody forecast of the nightmare sure to come, unless Marcinko can successfully locate and destroy the organization bent on leveling Portland, Oregon, in a nuclear holocaust.
