In 1973 a war is brewing in the Middle East and the Israeli command turns to America's secret special operations group for assistance. A small team of specialists are sent to the Holy Land to aid the United States ally, the situation takes a dangerous turn and one man must find a lost comrade in the rugged Negev Desert and bring him home. There can be only one man for the job, the world class sniper code named Shadow. Sergeant Peter Lucas aka Shadow braves the brutal conditions, Egyptian soldiers and his nemesis Evgeny Kolskoff in a life and death fight. The Soviets have gotten a man deep inside the Israeli Mossad and are intercepting secret communications between Washington and Tel Aviv throwing the mission into chaos. Twists and turns confront the Americans like the shifting sands of the desert, sending the military and the CIA into panic as individuals from both departments end up captured by the Egyptians.
Mr.Haury us an exceptionally gifted writer . His "Peter Lucas" series have been fascinating to read, snatching your attention from page one, volume one, and never letting his readers out of his grasp! His character development is realistic, his plots are dynamic, and the result is this reader didn't want to see the " fin" at the end of volume 3. I heartily recommend Mr. Harry's works , especially for readers who've become somewhat jaded over " run of the mill" action offerings.
Amazing and exciting story about Pete Lucas the ultimate assasin. Some of the military parts are truly incorrect. There are no Lieutenant Commanders in the Marine Corps but the books are so exciting that those mistakes can be overlooked. Thomas Hairy has written an easy reading and exciting novel. Well worth the time. Wish another was avail able.
