The Response Files #2
Jungle Heist
The Associate is at it again. His intent? To carry out the most daring raid ever against one of the largest gold mines in the world.
Deep in the forests of Ghana, drone technology, so out of place its almost alien, crushes the hardened defences. What follows is a game of cat and mouse through the jungle. The theft is so vast that the President can't ask even his most loyal allies to recover it. And so he turns to Max. Max and his team of highly trained specialists are people he thinks he can trust.
Can Max and his 'A-team' of specialists respond in time and intercept the gold in a remote jungle? All the while a corrupt enemy tries to hold on to the value and power that it would bring.
Is The Associate trying to topple The President because he wants to put a puppet in power, or does he have even grander aims?
Jungle Heist. A gipping tale of gold, guns and gallantry set in the deepest jungles of Africa. Its an explosive story of how criminals really could use current technology to pull off the greatest physical robbery of all time. Jungle Heist is written by the guy who has spent his working life defending against them.
