Two Minutes to War — Alex Ander

In this fast-paced terrorism thriller, a covert unit of FBI special agents flies to Russia to track down stolen missiles that have the potential of carrying nuclear warheads. Following a high-profile murder, former Special Forces soldier Aaron Hardy boards a jet, bound for Vladivostok, Russia, to meet with an old acquaintance who's been investigating the sale of military weapons on the black market. While in the air, new revelations force Hardy and his teammates to make an unscheduled diversion to Finland where he learns a man from his past is behind the killing. Having seen the death and destruction this terrorist has caused in the past, Hardy is convinced he must act fast if he wants to keep the U.S. out of a war that could go nuclear. Whew. And you thought the week leading up to your wedding was stressful.
