Mack Bolan takes on an evil version of The A Team, ex-special forces soldiers declared dead in a Vietnam friendly fire incident. The commandos have hired themselves out as soldiers of fortune, and are looking for one last big payday: teaming up with Muslim fanatics to commit acts of terrorism across Washington D.C., then holding the nation's capital hostage with backpack nukes.
Without any backup from his fellow Stony Man operatives, Bolan must uncover who is behind the terrorist acts and stop them. There is plenty of action as Bolan blazes a trail straight to the heart of the plot, with the book alternating between the hero and the criminal gang. The story is wrapped up pretty fast at the end, but it is a satisfying conclusion.
