Eve of Destruction

Professor Jake Elliot knows the truth. The United States of America is tired, politically divided, and over-extended by a seemingly endless "war of terror." Its adversary, the Islamic Republic of Iran, burns with the flames of apocalyptic religious fervor. The Ayatollahs, repressive, unpopular, yet true believers in the inevitability of their victory, seek to destroy the great Satan and establish Iran as the first Islamic superpower. Their means to do so: nuclear weapons. Jake is assigned by the Administration to formulate a plan to confront the Iranian nuclear threat, but no one seems to be listening.
Or are they? Joined by a touch, smart, former Army Captain turned CIA operative named Ivana Svilanovic and OJ Hamsid, an Iranian-born languages specialist, a US Special Forces team is sent into iran with orders to create an "incident" at a heavily guarded secret facility deep in Iran. They know that their odds of success are slim but they are committed to carrying out their orders whatever the risk.
In Tehran, the commander of the espionage unit of the elite "Al Quds Force," the brilliant and ruthless General Yazdi, is planning to send a team of specially trained agents to the west coast of the United States with orders to initiate a terrorist attack of shocking audacity. All that stands between them and success is a burned out Israeli Mossad agent, Hannah Parras, and Jake Elliot, who has been terminated from his assignment, yet presses forward to improve America's defenses against nuclear terrorism.
The United States and Iran are on a collision course. At the end of the day, there can be only one victor and one vanquished.
