Synopsis

Thomas Crocker's SEAL Team Six crew deploys to the Nigerian jungle to combat arms and human trafficking by Boko Haram in this fiercely authentic military thriller.

The charismatic Boko Haram leader Ratty Festus, also known as the Leopard, has been terrorizing drought-ridden northeastern Nigeria: raiding villages, blowing up government buildings, and kidnapping schoolgirls. When Thomas Crocker and his Black Cell team, who are in the country on a special training mission, hear about a possible arms-for-schoolgirls exchange between Boko Haram and a Russian arms dealer on the Cameroon border, they convince a Nigerian Special Forces unit to join them in trying to stop it. The operation quickly goes south, with a deadly helicopter crash and an ambush. They can't manage to save all of the girls, even with assistance from a quick-thinking group of British private-security contractors.
A week later, the Leopard seizes control of a $500-million dollar Gulf Oil natural gas plant, demanding a $50-million dollar ransom and safe passage out of the compound. Crocker has just 24 hours to plan and execute a high-risk, low-probability, mission to rescue all eighty innocent hostages -- including two of his own who are trapped with the civilians.

Ale táhne se to jako plivanec na okně a akce pomálu. Nadchla mě vlastně jen část jedné kapitoly, strany 299 až 307 (zejmén......more

Goodreads review by Robert on August 18, 2019

I always look forward to a new SEAL Team 6 book, and was excited to start this one. Too bad the excitement didn't last. This book has a great story line, hut gets bogged down with too much information about Islamic ideals and teachings. Too much introspection from the main characters. The action seq......more

Goodreads review by Joe on July 26, 2021

This is a mixed mash up of fiction and truth? The story is not congruent but does give historical basis for Boko Haram...there are some evil bastards in the world. Some parts of the book were good but some were just too boring. I was expecting a more factual book and not so much fictional hyperbole.......more

I enjoy all of Don's books, however, this book had a particularly boring part towards the middle. But, once the action cranked back up again I got fully engrossed.........more
