A leader of the Los Zetas cell, known as The Jackal,
kidnaps Lisa and Olivia Clark, wife and daughter of US
Senator Jesse Abrams Clark, from a resort in Arizona. Navy
Chief Warrant Officer Tom Crocker, recently returning from
a special op in Syria, is called in to rescue them. Senator
Clark always takes a strong position against drug
trafficking and immigration, and he believes this is why
his family has been captured.
Crocker and Navy SEAL Team Six are deployed to Mexico for
the rescue. Bad Intel makes their first attempt a complete
bust. But ST-6 doesn't quit, and the clock is ticking.
Crocker and his team charge forward, on their own and
without US presidential approval. They rescue Lisa with
only minutes to spare before the gas administered to her
takes her life, but Olivia is nowhere to be found. Can SEAL
Team Six find Olivia in time and return her home safely?
Could there be a different motive behind this kidnapping?
HUNT THE JACKAL is an action-packed, special-ops military
thriller you will not be able to put down. SEAL Team Six is
already reeling from the loss of one of their own members
during their last special ops when they're called into
action again. Fly with the team from Syria to Washington,
D.C. and then on into Mexico in this riveting story filled
with politics, drug wars, unethical US banking policies and
danger at every turn. The themes of truth, greed and trust,
or the lack thereof, run throughout this novel. Crocker and
Lisa are both strong characters who voice a personal
internal struggle periodically throughout the pages. An
assortment of weaponry is used that could stock an
impressive arsenal. Don Mann brings his own
expertise as a former Navy SEAL, along with bestselling
author Ralph Pezullo, to this adrenalin-packed
thriller that really packs a punch. HUNT THE JACKAL is
number four in the exciting Navy ST-6 series, and there
promises to be more.
Real-life SEAL Don Mann brings all of his insight and
experience to the next installment of the SEAL Team Six series.
When a senator's wife and teenage daughter are kidnapped,
Thomas Crocker and SEAL Team Six are sent to Mexico's
lawless countryside, where federal agents protect instead of
hunting down violent narcotics kingpins. The two women have
been kidnapped by the Jackal, a drug lord drunk on power and
influence. He also happens to be a self-styled modern Che
Guevara, who has undergone plastic surgery to disguise his
looks and justifies his brutal methods and Machiavellian
drug empire with the politics of social revolution. The
Jackal is as ruthless as he is colorful, and he must be stopped.
Crocker and the SEALs have only a matter of hours to track
down and rescue the two innocent civilians held at the mercy
of this madman. With dirty cops, dangerous cartels, lavish
tropical estates, double-crosses and plenty of bullets, Hunt
the Jackal places the team in perilous new territory and
demonstrates how elite warriors can adapt to and fight in
any situation.
With insight into sensitive intelligence so top-secret it
can only be hinted at in fiction, Mann and Pezzullo's
extensive knowledge has for several books offered a look
behind the curtain at the life-or-death, black-ops missions
executed by only a handful of the bravest soldiers. Now,
with Hunt the Jackal, the authors focus their lens even
closer to home upon the dangers that lurk just across the
U.S. border in a pulse-pounding thriller that ups the ante
even as it sheds light on the real-life heroes and villains
of the fight against narco-terrorism.
