White Monsoon - Morphine Base

Excerpt from Nevada Governor Jim Gibbons' Forward: Morphine Base is an intriguing fast-paced collection of stories that weave together into an international thriller. One story line follows a group of Libyan terrorists with curious non-Muslim names as they weed out a Mossad informant in their midst, masquerade as members of the International Red Cross and transport five eighteen wheelers from Libya to Nimach (an acronym for Northern India Mounted Artillary & Cavalary Headquarters) a town of about 150,000 known for the highest opium production in India. In another story line, Scott captures the world of the opium trade from both the licit and illicit sides of the coin by focusing on one group of fifteen thousand licensed opium farmers and their interactions with vicious drug traffickers as they try to bring their opium harvest to market once again in Nimach. High ranking Mossad agents come across the pond to ask the help of old friends at the CIA’s training facility nicknamed The Farm in Virginia. They have a missing agent who had infiltrated a dangerous terrorist group and almost discovered the terrorists’ plot--code named White Monsoon.
