‘He’s got a license to thrill…’ – Indian Express
From the author of the bestselling Lashkar series
Deep in Waziristan, the Ameer-ul-Momineem, a powerful terrorist warlord, embarks on a deadly mission to take the jihad across international borders. To carry out his horrific plan, he puts together the Tanzeem, a group of leaders spread across the continents. Supporting him are the Mullah in Quetta and the Director of Pakistan’s ISI. Or do they have their own agendas?
Across the border in India, a young man named Iqbal, devastated by the death of his wife at the hands of the Ameer’s henchmen, sets out with a singular focus – to find the Ameer and take him down. Supporting him is the spirited Force 22, India’s strike action team.
Will Iqbal be able to stop the jihadi terror machine in time?
Find out in this taut, thrilling finale to the Lashkar series, where India’s literary storm trooper, Mukul Deva, tells us how the scourge of terrorism began and where it is likely to end.

A military thriller, 4th book in the Lashkar series written by the author.
The story has Iqbal, with the support of the force 22 of Indian intelligence cross into Pakistan to kill the leadership of the Taliban and the other killing units in Pakistan and Afghanistan.
A great insight is provided by the author into the actual region in Waziristan where the top warlord Ameer lives and is coordinating drastic strikes across the world with the help of his council called tanzeem.
Thrilling pace of the book, with description of lay of the land, latest ammunition and the geopolitics of Afghanistan all together make for an interesting reading experience.

The one I missed… this is a book I read more than a couple of years ago, and forgot to review it then. As luck would have it, I dug deep into my pitaaraa two days ago, and thought of re-reading this one to check up on how exactly Iqbal ended up. The immediate stimulus was a twitter conversation with the Author himself. And so it was that I found that this excellent book was spared my attention in the list of books reviewed, which is a real pity; I would rate this as being among the Author’s very best. If any of you haven’t already read it – do so; you will not regret it.
This is the 4th book of the Lashkar series; and this one is all about Iqbal from start to finish. A shattered Iqbal comes out of Blowback with hatred and revenge the only two alternating emotions in his heart; a heart burning with one desire, and one desire alone. And a mind filled with alternating thoughts of Tanaz, and the man / men who were ultimately responsible for her condition… the combination of the mind and the heart propels Iqbal towards his goal, his purpose, and gives him resolve. And his resolve, his goal? The destruction of the entire people behind the most sordid Saga of his life.

Fast paced novel. The author is one of the more equipped persons to write on Indo Pak and Afghan military issues, having served for fifteen years. The story sounds authentic. Good for a weekend read.
