A riveting military action adventure novel—Band of Brothers meets Andy McNab in a story of hard-nosed mercenaries

In southern Afghanistan, the British are fighting an increasingly desperate battle to contain a resurgent Taliban. The British commander knows the Taliban control the heroin trade, which brings in vast amounts of money for weapons, so they back a covert mercenary unit to steal the drug lords' money. The unit—a 10-strong team of the most ruthlessly efficient military mercenaries—is put together by ex-SAS soldier Steve West. The deal is, they will get intelligence and logistical support from the British Army, and in return they get to keep the money. But the men from Death Inc. find themselves fighting a desperate rearguard action through the lawless badlands of southern Afghanistan, and al-Queda-controlled northern Pakistan. In a novel as thrilling as it is authentic, this international group of guns for hire who have an awful lot to lose, and even more to gain.
