Megiddo

the long version

"Revenge is a dish best eaten cold. Despite rigorous sanctions, the spread of nuclear weapons has slowly advanced. The fear of MAD (Mutual Assured Destruction) has halted all-out war between the nuclear-armed powers for the last 75 years. But it does not guard the world from madmen. The existence of suitcase nuclear bombs provides a perfect weapon for terror big enough to satisfy any lust for revenge on the Great Satan. Now it only needs a carrier and Armageddon is off and running. An unsuspecting retired naval family gets caught in the middle of an international plot of revenge."--Back cover
