Before this group strikes again, Jason Richter is called in with his top-secret high-tech military unit, code-named task force TALON. Richter believes there is only one strategy with which to snare his opponents - find, pursue, engage, and kill. And the only way to do this is to beat them at their own game: Be unconventional, swift, and brutal enough to strike fear into the hearts of the most dedicated terrorist. Richter must also uncover a mole high-up within the government, who is in pursuit of his own personal revenge. If Richter fails, it won't be just the lives of his team."@en
  • ""Near Houston, Texas, an oil refinery belonging to one of the world's largest energy companies is obliterated by a "backpack" nuclear device -- the first of many planned global attacks against corporations and government organizations accused of plundering the world's natural resources. A horrific act of war has been perpetrated against the U.S. and her interests -- and Major Jason Richter and his top-secret, high-tech Task Force TALON are dispatched to pursue, engage, and destroy this virulent new strain of terrorism. Yet Richter's plan of swift, brutal, and unconventional action is threatened by an enemy buried deep in the highest level of government -- a mole whose blind desire for personal vengeance could doom Richter and his team--and America"--Publisher's web site."@en
