"A Thomas Crocker thriller"
Description
Chief Warrant Officer Thomas Crocker and his SEAL Team Six troop are leading training exercises with Nigerian Special Forces in the drought-ridden northeastern part of the country, where Boko Haram squads have been terrorizing the population with ever more brazen attacks. One of the most feared splinter groups is Written in Blood, led by the unstable Festus Ratty Kumar—the Leopard—who previously kidnapped more than a hundred teenage girls in a deadly raid on a government school. Like his namesake, the Leopard knows how to strike hard and disappear quickly into the jungle with his prey; two years later, many of the girls are still missing. Rumors that Written in Blood is preparing for another major strike are confirmed when the Leopard arranges a deal with the Russians to trade the remaining schoolgirl hostages for heavy-duty arms and ammunition. The SEALs and their Nigerian Special Forces colleagues scramble to intercept the exchange. But neither side is prepared for so many things to go so badly wrong. Enraged and embarrassed after the incomplete deal, the Leopard doesn't hesitate to pick a new target, one which could have global ramifications. Now Crocker must face the Leopard for a second time. It's one of the most intense operations of his career, with just twenty-four hours to plan and execute a high-risk, low-probability mission to rescue innocent hostages—including two of his own who are trapped with the civilians.
