Description
In north Africa, three power-hungry rulers battle over control of a vast untapped oil reserve. One wants revenge, one wants wealth and the third wants justice. As the tension rises, retired US Air Force general Patrick McLanahan enters the fray with his fleet of ultra-high-tech flying battleships, carrying the world's first operational airborne lasers. But the battle turns ugly, then deadly, and McLanahan's forces are routed and sent scurrying for safety into the desert.
Patrick begins to realise that once a man has lost everything he holds dear, the meaning of fighting, winning and dying changes completely. The conflict becomes unclear and the lines between friend and enemy blur. But by the time he finally learns the truth about loyalty, friendship and duty, it may be too late to stop the destruction rolling across the Sahara. And despite all the power at his command, this may be McLanahan's final battle.
'When a former pilot with years of experience in America's Strategic Air Command turns his hand to writing thrillers you can take their authenticity for granted. His writing is exceptional and the dialogue, plots and characters are first-class...far too good to be missed' - Sunday Mirror -
