Cold Fire

More about the book

The United States has a massive stockpile of chemical and biological weapons safely stored and scheduled for destruction. Despite precautions of such a task, an accident shuts down the destruction complex with trapped workers trying to escape and exposing the world to the horrors of these deadly weapons. A lone Colonel is sent inside the complex to set off a small nuclear sterilizing device by hand, to end the destruction that'd ensue if the trapped workers found a way to open the complex to the air and their escape.
