Book Description
In war-torn West Africa, the terrorist leader Abu Alhaul and his followers are on the run, pursued by the equally merciless forces of the African National Army—whose goal of a united Africa is achieved by the wholesale slaughter of any who oppose them. When a reconnaissance plane from Amphibious Force Two is hit by a missile, four men are forced to bail out into the middle of a jungle bloodbath—and the hunt is on for the American prey. Admiral Dick Holman knows that any move he makes could ignite a political powder keg. But he also knows that the only way to save his men is to go in and get them out. “On a par with Tom Clancy.”—Milos Stankovic “Meadows will have you turning pages and thinking new thoughts.”—Newt Gingrich
