Critical Mass introduces us to the many players in this action story chapter by chapter. Gradually these characters start to interact as we learn about the nuclear bombs that have been stolen from a post cold war Russia and are being conveyed to a US city for detonation.

In fact, I was hoping to find a sequel by Mr. Martini but it appears that one has yet to be written.
