Deep in the sweltering jungles of the Philipines, Nathan
Dixon and the Third Regiment of the Seventy-Fifth Ranger
Battalion are fighting an elusive and deadly force. Nathan
and his unit face one bloody encounter after another with a
small but highly trained corps of Islamic terrorists. And
though the death toll keeps rising, the Rangers’ battalion
commander has convinced most of his superiors that he has
an all but foolproof plan for defeating the enemy. But back
in Washington, Nathan’s father, Lieutenant General Scott
Dixon, the deputy chief of staff for operations with the
U.S. Army, realizes that if the mission continues, many
more Americans will be wounded or killed—perhaps even his
own son. A dual game of cat and mouse is played out both in the
jungles of Mindanao and in the halls of Washington, D.C.
Nathan Dixon must deal with a battalion commander whose
willing to set aside his battalion’s safety for personal
gain. Scott Dixon must go head-to-head with a stubborn
chain of command that refuses to alter a plan of attack,
even in the face of a losing effort. And all the while, a
new terrorist is rising to power in Southeast Asia, Hamdani
Summirat, radical Islam’s most charismatic and strategic
leader yet. And everything is falling perfectly into his
master plan.
