When a Predator drone is hijacked by
Taliban forces and used to kill US marines,
Major Nathan Connor and his Delta Force unit
are deployed to destroy it.

The only problem is Connor must also keep a promise --
to find and protect his dead friend's son, Hassan.

Delta Force burst into action to track down the
Predator drone and Hassan before it's too late,
and before more innocent blood is spilt...

Explosive action and a thrilling, high-paced read
is guaranteed in these gritty war adventures,
which follow the behind-enemy-lines exploits
of a squad from the US special combat unit known
as "Delta Force".
