About this listen

An adrenaline-filled war story that depicts the challenges of military special operations in a dangerous, boulder-filled landscape.

The Company has a special secret operation planned for one of their top agents: the leaders of the Taliban and al-Qaeda terrorist groups are hiding out in Pashtun country, and they must be eliminated. The job falls to a man they have named Frank Morganan agent who stood out as a recruit at Quantico and whose skills resemble those of the legendary Vietnam assassin. The other soldiers claim Frank’s abilities as a sniper and a tracker border on the supernatural and are more than willing to complete this mission with him.

Frank begins his adventure in Afghanistan with another Company-appointed soldier: An indestructible lyrical Irishman with a cutting sense of humor and a bottle of Jameson never far from hand. After the men rescue a burqa-clad young woman, they soon discover that the Company has not been honest with them and decide to take a second mate under their winga giant who quotes poetry and rap songs while he both enacts torture and lives through his own agonizing trials.

They know now that oil, drugs, and greed have led to this quest; assassinating the terrorists is not their main objective. However, this still must be done. After becoming dangerously acquainted with the heroin business in the frontier provinces, Frank and his comrades continue their mission. But the lines have now blurred, and the assignment is more complicated than they expected.

I enjoyed this book! Great story and plot. The action was excellent and described brilliantly by the Narrator who brought the story and characters alive.

Excellent

Absolute ‘breath of fresh air’ to hear a VERY well narrated story that doesn’t go the simple ‘America can do no wrong’ route. Pace of the story is good & it paints a picture nearer what I think is reality than the usual Gung-Ho spy thriller. Excellent & highly recommended… I hope there are other similar stories in the series, narrated by the same voice!

Realism narrated brilliantly

This book is a half story that took its time going nowhere. If you're after a book that concludes in a meaningful manner (or concludes full stop) then look elsewhere.

I shan't be buying any more books from this author lest they fizzle out in the same fashion

The Author got bored and just stopped writing
