The Fulcrum / The Power of Three / Unchained


J.C. Ryan - 2019
    Sometimes they fly by us in a blur or a series of blurs, barely marked or remembered. But every so often, a moment comes along that is so forceful, it becomes a fulcrum that sets us on a new course. Such an event happened for Rex Dalton on March 11, 2004 at Atocha Station, Madrid, Spain. Power of ThreeRex Dalton was sent on a mission to Afghanistan to gather information about the opium trade. His mission brief was to find out who were the key players, the trade routes, and to follow the money trail from the producers, distributors into the coffers of Taliban and other terrorist organizations. Before long he had opened a can of worms revealing spine chilling deceit and corruption that reached into the highest hallways of power in Afghanistan, America, and Europe. His submissions to his superiors to take action to wipe out the drug stores, labs, and the drug lords, fell on deaf ears. Eventually, the deliberate inaction and ineptness of US politicians drove Dalton to take unsanctioned action and it stirred a hornet's nest which even he, one of the world's most lethal assassins, might not survive. UnchainedRex Dalton and his new friend, the military dog, Digger escaped from Afghanistan and made their way into India where they started a new life. Within a few weeks, Dalton had a new name, a new passport and no worries about money. He and Digger were on their way to Kapal Mochan, India, where Rex intended to dip his hand into a sacred spring.But then Digger started shifting around in the front passenger seat and looking at him as if to say, "So, when are you going to stop and give a dog a chance to go to the toilet?"
