PART III

Port of Jebel Ali, United Arab Emirates

The two-story steel warehouse was one of thousands of freight stations clustered on the eastern edge of the port. It was remarkable only in that on the inside, instead of being crammed full with goods for import or export, it lay empty save for a thirty-foot-long powerboat and a group of soldiers.

Three of the soldiers wielded spray guns and were painting the boat, which had been propped up on jack stands and blocks.

A fourth, the leader of the group, stood in the background observing his men and occasionally glancing at a photo of an actual United Arab Emirates Coast Guard boat that he held in his hand. Tomorrow, when the gray paint had dried, two red stripes would be affixed to either side of the hull, and the marine radar dome and other antennas would be installed. The details would have to be perfect, he thought, because anything approaching the USS Reagan that was perceived to be a threat would be blown out of the water.

Under normal circumstances, not even the Emirates Coast Guard would be allowed to get too close. But if the coast guard was in direct pursuit of a hostile craft…well, the soldier couldn’t see the Americans firing on the coast guard until it was too late.
