    JACOBSON PUBLISHES NOVEL THE KURCHATOV PENETRATION LA CROSSE, WI - Visjonr Press is pleased to announce publication of The Kurchatov Penetration, a techno-thriller by author Timothy S. Jacobson. In the novel, Mossad assassinations of Iranian nuclear experts, debilitating international sanctions, computer viruses tailored to disrupt uranium enrichment facilities, other acts of sabotage, and threats of all-out war by the U.S. escalate and push extremist rulers within the Islamic Republic of Iran to the point of frenzied desperation and insane impatience in their quest to construct the ultimate weapon of horror. Despite the risks of feeding Iran's ravenous appetite for plutonium, Nikolai Volkov of the Russian mafiya devises a plan to reap obscene profits by hijacking a cache of weapons-grade material for sale in the Middle East. The mafiya is thwarted in its efforts until it tricks a brilliant but nave teenage hacker, Kent Dalton, into picking the digital locks securing stockpiles of fissile materials. In a cascade of intrigue, the fate of the world suddenly hangs in the balance as the mafiya, the hacker, and the governments of Russia, America and Iran scratch and claw for control of the most dangerous and powerful element on Earth. The author, Timothy S. Jacobson, has been a U.S. Air Force Auxiliary (Civil Air Patrol) mission pilot, attorney, writer, documentary filmmaker, dot-com and energy company executive, computer programmer, conservationist, song writer and guitar player, blacksmith, runner, and public speaker with a black belt in karate and an advanced scuba diving certification. He has traveled through parts of the Middle East and stared down the barrels of machine guns wielded by screaming soldiers while investigating firsthand some of the security and political issues embroiling the region. He is a student of Russian language and history. In the Air Force Auxiliary, Major Jacobson has flown Homeland Security training exercises in which armed F-16 fighter jets have intercepted the plane he is flying. His skilled legal advocacy led Law & Politics and Milwaukee Magazine to jointly name him a Super Lawyer, and he has appeared and advocated before the United States Supreme Court. USA Today said, If Jacobson[s firm] isnt careful, it may wind up giving lawyers a good name. Saint Paul Pioneer Press called his firm one of the most Internet-savvy law firms in existence. His leadership of a nonprofit conservancy resulted in the organization being recognized as Land Trust of the Year and Friend of Conservation - Outstanding Organization. He has published magazine articles about international peace and justice issues, computer security, law and land conservation. Frequently, TV, newspapers and magazines have profiled him for his legal and conservation work and his involvement in international issues. The Kurchatov Penetration is Jacobson's first published novel. The Kurchatov Penetration is available for purchase as a paperback book at www.KurchatovPenetration.com , www.VisjonaerPress.com , and www.amazon.com . An edition for the Kindle digital reader also is available online. ###
