Near the end of the Second World War, as the Reich was crumbling, they sent what plutonium they had to Japan on board a submarine. The Japanese already had a fledgling program developed. At the end of the war, why were the Russians suddenly so eager to invade Manchuria? What prize were they after? And what if the result of that program still exists and lies at the base of the Golden Gate Bridge?

1. What if the Japanese had
succeeded in developing a
nuclear weapon at the end of
World War II, but were stopped
before deploying it?
But the bomb is still hidden.
At the base of the Golden Gate
Bridge!

3. High Praise for The Gate
Kansas City Journal Inquirer: “What a
delicious adventure-thriller. Its clever,
plausible plot gives birth to lots of action and
suspense.”
Written by a New York Times Bestselling Author,
West Point Graduate and Green Beret.

4. The facts:
As the Third Reich was reduced to rubble, a U-
Boat attempted to make the arduous journey to
Japan.
Its cargo?
Scientists, enriched uranium, and two Japanese
naval officers.

5. The Facts:
The Japanese worked extensively on their biological
and chemical weapons. Unit 731 in Manchuria was
infamous and largely ignored by history.

6. OSS documents indicate that Japan’s nuclear
weapons program was also headquartered in
Manchuria.
Which is why the Russians were in such a rush
to seize that area near the end of the war.

7. What if the Japanese succeeded?
What if they detonated one bomb in
Manchuria at the end of the war to cover
their tracks and the second bomb
disappeared on board a submarine heading
across the Pacific.
Toward the United States? Toward the city
where the 1st meeting of the United Nations
will be held.

8. That nuclear weapon has been lost and
forgotten about at the base of the Golden
Gate Bridge since the end of the war.
Lake, a covert operative for the US, is now
on a race against rogue militia terrorists to
find and destroy this weapon in order to
prevent a nuclear disaster of epic
proportions.

9. This books mixes a modern day thriller with
uncovering history.
The horrors of Unit 731; the Yakuza; North
Korean commandoes and home grown
terrorists.
All combine in this action-packed story of
what could be.
By a #1 NYT bestselling author and former
Special Operations.
