Mack Bolan the Executioner #189
Wellfire
Long promised retribution for the Gulf War is set to explode throughout Oklahoma when a terrorist group plots to ignite the state's oil wells. Once the fiery carnage begins, it would be unstoppable.
Mack Bolan must go under cover to infiltrate the terrorist network. The Executioner's mission is twofold: neutralize the threat to the wells in the western part of the Oklahoma panhandle, then get intel on the other targets to counterstrike teams.
But torching the U.S. heartland is only the first phase in the ultimate act of revenge by America's most relentless enemy.

Another fast paced entry in the Executioner series. This time out Mack must infiltrate a terrorist plot from Saddam Hussein. If he can’t foil their evil plans America’s oilfields will burn. Full of twists and turns, this is an energetic race to the finale.

The Executioner never disappoints, even though the writing and plot were a bit scattered in this one. Bad guys die... lots of them. Some things blow up, but more certainly could have. The interrogation of a bad guy was far too short :)
Well, on to the next mission!
