He also brings into play countries and places that he knows first hand in Europe, Asia, and the Middle East. His books are based on real events but read like page-turning thrillers.

Cattani's Soviet counterpart is Colonel Ivan Levchenko, a Russian military intelligence (GRU) officer. The Able Archers tells the incredible story of the very real nuclear war crisis of 1983.
