Incident at Tybee Island

About the Book

A nuclear device is missing.  Al Qaeda is the prime suspect. So where and when are the terrorists going to detonate the bomb?

Fact:  On February 5, 1957, a B-47 carrying a nuclear weapon was involved in a mid-air collision off the coast of Georgia.

Fiction: (or is it?)  After the events of 9/11, the renewed Air Force search for the bomb takes on new meaning, but it soon becomes apparent that someone has beaten them to it. Flying passenger aircraft into the World Trade Center and the Pentagon is one thing.  A nuclear bomb in the wrong hands is quite another.  Not wanting whole-scale panic, the decision is quickly made to mount a covert operation to find the stolen bomb and get it back. With many twists along the way, the final outcome isn’t what anyone expected.

“Rowan Wolfe has cleverly crafted fact into fiction and Incident at Tybee Island is an accurate account of what really happened.  The book is a thrilling, well-written fast-paced read that kept me turning pages.  Colonel Howard Richardson. USAF (Ret).  Pilot of the B-47 who jettisoned the bomb.
