From Marc Iverson, author of the critically acclaimed Persian Horse, comes another thrilling tale of military action and adventure, this time set in what could well be the world's next hot spot.When the brutal Shining Path guerrillas decide to launch their revolution in Peru with the secret help of battle-seasoned Cuban regulars, it spells deadly trouble for the small band of American special forces advisers and drug enforcement agents stationed in two vulnerable firebases in the Andes. Can the outnumbered Americans be rescued before they are overrun by the surprise attacks?This classic, high-tension tale of courage and treachery stretches from a patrol cut off in the jungle highlands of northern Peru all the way to the White House Situation Room, where a desperate national security adviser hatches a last-ditch scheme to rely on the fire-power of the soon-to-be-decommissioned USS Missouri.Persian Horse established Marc Iverson as a skilled storyteller with a sure grasp of the tactics and technology of modern warfare.
