| Plot Summary of Dreamland Razor's Edge |
|---|
"Over the Iraqi no-fly zones, a series of USAF planes are being shot down by a mysterious weapon which is far beyond the country's level of military technology. Such a weapon seriously undermines the stability of the region. Its up to the White House to deploy the nations best forces to hunt and destroy the weapon. To do this, the team must first set up a base near by and secure the area. Next they must establish where the weapon is firing from and if it is mobile. Brown excellently describes the logistical problems faced by the elite team."
