Product Description
Set in Singapore, Indonesia, Malaysia, and the United States, The Malacca Conspiracy is a bone-chilling tale of terrorism on the high seas, of political assassination and nuclear brinkmanship. And for Zack and Diane---your favorite JAG characters from Don Brown's popular Navy Justice Series---a story of hope for a longstanding romance that is now or never.When a dastardly plot is hatched in the Malaysian seaport of Malacca to attack civilian oil tankers at sea, to drive up the price of crude oil futures, and to assassinate the Indonesian president and use fat windfall profits to finance a nuclear attack against American cities, Navy JAG officers Zack Brewer and Diane Cocernian reunite in a sizzling race against the clock to foil the conspiracy before disaster strikes. But as President Mack Williams sends ships of the U.S. Seventh Fleet towards the Malacca Straights to reassert control over the sea lanes, will Navy JAG officers Zack Brewer and Diane Colcernian survive this dangerous and final high-stakes drama of life and death?You won't be able to put this thriller down until you find out.

 A story of good vs. evil, wow imagine that! September 8, 2010

The Malacca Conspiracy is my first book I have read by Don Brown. Politics and religion aside, I enjoyed getting lost in the story with the characters. The flow of the story was good enough to keep me running back to the book to read before bed. I also realized that there are other books with the main characters in which I would like to read in the near future.
I would highly recommend this book as a great weekend or vacation read.

I am an avid reader. I like both good non fiction and fiction works. However, when it comes to fiction, I love it when it is written from well studied and well developed truths and facts. This is what Don does so well in his books and what he did in this book.
Don Brown is a genius. I have read all of his books. He has a great mastery of bringing historical facts to bear in all of his stories. What I like most about what he does, is that he develops the story true to modern day issues and current events and seems to always be ahead of the curve, almost anticipating the future. I would not probably call him a prophet in the literal sense, but I can honestly say that he sees the impact of current politics in such a way that he can easily project a close to accurate picture of the future.
I consider myself a patriot having served our country as a Marine. I am proud to say that it is clear that this man is also a great patriot. I can see that he loves our country for the liberty and freedom for which it stands. He sees those who hate it and want to impose their misguided beliefs to destroy it. He writes about this in his books showing us all that there is always evil out there and we can't always just all "get along" There really are bad people in this world who want to rule and destroy the good. Don is not afraid to write about this in all of his stories, like he did in this book.
I know Don gets a critical word or two from time to time for his books including this one. But any who so loudly and clearly proclaim the truth of what they believe like he did in this book, will always find a small few who disagree. I have talked to many who have read this book and they all, without exception, say that they agree with his sentiments and can easily see that what he has written may possibly happen one day soon.
Truly, I think it would be a good idea for the citizens and leaders of our country to take heart in the stories that Don writes and stay on guard for such evil powers and attempts in attacking our beautiful country. I am looking forward to Don's next book.
Amazing! I would have given it a 6th Star! September 7, 2010

The action and drama in Malacca Conspiracy is so riveting that I would have given it a sixth star .. or more ... if I had that option!
Timely, scary and the most action-packed thriller I've read in a long time!
 Malacca Malarkey- I rated this book one star because... September 6, 2010

...there was no option for NO stars. At its best, this book was a mediocre faux thriller, at its worst a poorly written, thoughtless diatribe of sexist, racist, and religious ignorance. I mourn the loss of my $10 and would have preferred to have had it taken from me in the lunch line by the class bully...
BTW- I blame all of you 5 star givers (if you really exist) for tricking me into this purchase, and invite you to read a real book sometime, try John le Carre.
Simply Amazing. September 5, 2010

I normally don't read books of this genre, but found myself unable to put down Malacca Conspiracy. It is a real pager-turner, with fabulous action, and the author's imagination in incredible. The terrorist attack on the Indonesian president in the book was unreal. Highly recommended!
