The Standard
In the not too distant future, a coalition of international groups is planning a return to the gold standard
in resolving a global recession. A criminal network of drug cartels and financial speculators
are plotting to convert their holdings into bullion before launching attacks against major gold depositories
in three countries
to give them a monopoly in the new market.
MI6 assigns William Shanahan
to disrupt Operation Blackout with the help of Jack Gawain,
a Ulster Defense Association volunteer serving a life sentence in Northern Ireland.
Their target, Enrique Chupacabra, is an assassin for the Medellin cartel who is coordinating a nuclear attack on the American mainland.
For action/adventure fans and suspense/thriller buffs, The Standard is a tale not to be forgotten.
