War is brutal. Colonel Wes Stauer gets it. He ought to. He was onceone of war's most brutal practitioners — not to mention one of its mosteffective and least bloody. Brutal yes; stupid no. Now, not only mustStauer command his crack outfit of former comrades and pull off yet anothermiracle mission, he must also harness and direct the brute within himself— a beast he will need in order to destroy an intelligent enemy who is asimplacable as Stauer himself. Okay, almost as implacable. There will bewar. And there will be warriors like Wes Stauer who have the know-how and, onceset in motion, the unstoppable professional drive, to see the bad guys to theirgraves and destroy every last earthly piece of their nastylegacies!
