"Do it now!" said Khan, his voice little more than a whisper.Nash connected the battery terminals. The green light glowed dully. He threw a switch and the light turned to red. Mouthing a silent prayer he pushed the button. The red light went out.No smoke or flames were visible but the sound of the distant explosions rumbled over the land scape like the approach of doom. Nash slid his right hand under his jacket and grasped his gun. Khan was talking excitedly, oblivious to wha...

Burma has already fallen, and it seems certain that India must follow.

The target is Major General Tohutaro Sakurai, Commander of the Japanese Fourteenth Army, mastermind of the Japanese victories from Singapore to the Arakan. For Sakurai alone, if only for a short time, holds the key to the next advance. The method can only be the assas...

A dangerous double agent must be rescued from a Czechoslovakian prison. Or, failing that, he must be disposed of. In the event neither option is available, because the Black King has already "castled".

Africa is fighting its old enemies - naked greed, systemic corruption, and poorly disguised ambition. In Central Africa especially, innocence or guilt of these things can be - and is - decided by the flip of any powerful country's coin. Robert McCann, a disgraced U.S. Marine officer, is not a mercenary soldier through choice. Certainly not in the first instance.
