This is the beginning of the Tet Offensive. Both sides face more than the enemy as superior officers manoeuver for political advantage, and where cowardice, prejudice and treachery infiltrate the ranks – on both sides. In the air and on the land, raw courage, tenacity, and honor are the marks of humanity that deal with the wreckage of war… Praise for Richard Herman ‘An imaginative action story told to perfection’ – Clive Cussler 'Too many of today’s geopolitical thrillers ring false, but not Herman’s.” – San Francisco Examiner ‘This is the sharp end, with vivid descriptions of air combat, the smell of hot oil and fear’ – The Times ‘A really fast-moving air force adventure story, with some superb action scenes which glue you to
