Mack Bolan the Executioner #337
Tropic Blast
Mack Bolan's directive is to end the violent reign of a powerful drug lord with eyes and ears inside the highest levels of the Colombian government. His target has been tipped off and has escaped every attempted raid to date, maintaining a brutal regime that remains impenetrable and deadly. Going undercover in drug territory, Bolan enlists the aid of a hard-hitting Texas Ranger to help bring down the cutthroat kingpin.
Working the war zone between rightwing political terrorists and the brutal drug lords of the notorious FARC, Bolan will do whatever it takes to bait his enemies. In a violent world where drugs, kidnapping and murder are just a way of doing business, the Executioner puts a high price on retribution.

An action movie snapped and played out on these pages. Like the last Executioner book.. I would have gone to see this movie at least once. My favorite part is the hero's sidekick this time is a Texan with a lot of attitude. Very amusing. =)
