Marc Rasmussen, creator of the Mark Groves adventures brings to life a new novel titled “Immoral High Ground.” The world is a dangerous place and Colonel Groves is a reluctant hero who is often asked to take on the country’s biggest challenges. Working for billionaire arms manufacturer, Robert “Chance:” King, he leads of group of covert professionals on missions of the highest priority for President James Rossi and the leadership of our nation. The Chinese are angry because of the destruction of the North Korean nuclear program and the elimination of the newly minted military bases in the South China Sea. In response, an assassination attempt is directed at Chance King after the involvement of his organization in those events is discovered. When space-based super weapons begin to surgically eliminate United States military assets, Mark Groves is tasked to counter the threat. Using a state-of-the-art spaceplane, he takes on the satellite-based directed energy weapons and then helps prevent the mastermind behind the weapons from reaching a safe harbor in China. In response, a diabolical plot is implemented, and the Chinese send their top pilot into the fray to support their evil objectives. The final battle between Colonel Groves flying an F/A-18 Hornet against two of the frontline Chinese fighters is epic and the consequences to the Chinese supercarrier, Shandong, is surprising. “Immoral High Ground” features military action, political intrigue, spycraft and a bit of romance.
