Back to Iraq

Jim Scott and friends (now called Janitors—as in they clean up other people's messes) are back for another kick at the can in Back to Iraq, the second book of the nine-book "Janitor" series. All the folks who helped Jim and Holly in Baghdad Butcher are back, with a few new additions. The basic team set-up at the end of Butcher is augmented by a new character. We also have a briefly mentioned character in this book who will become prominent in later books when he joins the team. This time around, Jim and team are headed for Iraq within 72 hours of 9/11. For all of you who enjoyed Butcher and have been making requests (in some cases, repeated requests) for the next book, here it is…Enjoy. For years it was rumored that a secret protocol to the SALT treaties between the United States and Soviet Union called for the banning and destruction of any and all small nuclear devices that were easily carried, thus suitable for terrorist acts. This is the story of four such devices, which were never destroyed and made their way from the Soviet Union (or Russia after the fall of the Soviet Union) to an al-Qaida facility within the borders of Iraq.
