The Devil's Delegation

Kuwait City: Mahfuz Abood becomes an orphan during Desert Storm. He blames the United States for his parents' death. Standing in front of his destroyed home, he meets and is taken in by a Pakistani terrorist named Mustafa, who over time, teaches him the ways of death and destruction. Now a grown man, he devises a plan to pay back the United States. He tortures a Greek oil tanker owner who is murdered after he signs his ship over to Mahfuz. The Russian Bratva is paid to steal a nuclear bomb from a Russian submarine graveyard. Once obtained, it is transported to an Indian port and placed in the ship's number one center cargo tank. A cargo of heavy crude oil is loaded onboard the tanker, making the bomb inaccessible with the activation controls hidden on the ship's main deck. The United States' attention is diverted towards New York as the tanker sails into the Gulf of Mexico hidden behind an ominous hurricane. The target is Port Arthur, Texas. It is the number one port for the import and export of petroleum, chemicals, and natural gases. Will Mahfuz have his vengeance or will the United States prevent a major catastrophe?
