The upsurge in high-grade heroin on the West Coast is ringing alarm bells all over Washington. It's clear there's a new player at the table, someone setting up a Turkish heroin pipeline through Pakistan. One man's war just found a new battlefield.
With only sketchy Intel supplied by a suspected spook on the take, Mack Bolan picks up the white line in Central Asia - and taps the a former KGB agent gone off the deep end, following his capitalist dream of becoming the world's reigning drug lord.
With a fortune in opium locked in Pakistan's war-torn terrain, a lot of high rollers have a stake in the the CIA, the DEA, the KGB - and Bolan. There are no rules for this kind of house party. The Executioner is making up a few of his own.
Don Pendleton was born in Little Rock, Arkansas, December 12, 1927 and died October 23, 1995 in Arizona.
He wrote mystery, action/adventure, science-fiction, crime fiction, suspense, short stories, nonfiction, and was a comic scriptwriter, poet, screenwriter, essayist, and metaphysical scholar. He published more than 125 books in his long career, and his books have been published in more than 25 foreign languages with close to two hundred million copies in print throughout the world.
After producing a number of science-fiction and mystery novels, Don launched in 1969 the phenomenal Mack Bolan: The Executioner, which quickly emerged as the original, definitive Action/Adventure series. His successful paperback books inspired a new particularly American literary genre during the early 1970's, and Don became known as "the father of action/adventure."
"Although The Executioner Series is far and away my most significant contribution to world literature, I still do not perceive myself as 'belonging' to any particular literary niche. I am simply a storyteller, an entertainer who hopes to enthrall with visions of the reader's own incipient greatness."
Don Pendleton's original Executioner Series are now in ebooks, published by Open Road Media. 37 of the original novels.
