  A riveting military action adventure novel - Band of Brothers mets Andy McNab in a story of hard nosed mercenaries. In Helmand Province, southern Afghanistan, the British are fighting an increasingly desperate battle to contain a resurgent Taliban. The British commander knows the Taliban control the heroin trade, which brings in vast amounts of money for weapons. They back a covert mercenary unit to steal the drug lords' money. The deal: they will get intelligence and logistical support from the British Army, and in return they get to keep the money. The unit is put together by DEF's best man, Steve West; vastly experienced and ex SAS. But the men from Death Inc. find themselves fighting a desperate rearguard action through the lawless badlands of southern Afghanistan, and al-Queda-controlled northern Pakistan...

  Their paymaster: a top private military corporation called DEF, better known as Death Inc...Their destination: Helmand, Afghanistan...Their mission: top secret, black ops...No one knows if any of them will return alive. But what is certain: if they die, they'll die fighting! Steve West, ex-SAS soldier, is looking for a big payday and to settle down at last. And Ollie Hall, ex-Household Cavalry, has his own demons to lay to rest, and a wife to please. Together they assemble a ten strong team of the most ruthlessly efficient military mercenaries they can find, all experts in their killing fields. It's an opportunity of a lifetime. But there are scores to settle; personal battles to win; honour to uphold; reputations to rebuild; egos to restrain and riches beyond imagination to recover. But no reward will make a blind bit of difference if they forget to work as a team and end up dead on the desert floor!
