Hostile Odds

Mack Bolan the Executioner #364

by Jon Guenther, Don Pendleton (Series Creator)

The illicit activities of an organized crime family draw Mack Bolan to California, where he uncovers a deadly power struggle. It seems a branch of this family tree extends to a small town in Oregon where the Mob's influence runs deep. Following the bloody trail, Bolan takes his war across the state line.

Profits from prostitution, drugs and numbers rackets tied to several local businesses are being funneled to a radical ecoterrorist group more than willing to strike out against anything--and anyone--standing in its way. A war is brewing and the small town is under siege. Faced with mounting casualties, the Executioner will have to use his own methods to clean up the environment.

Reviews

[Holger Haase · Rating 3 out of 5]

Mack Bolan doesn't just fight the Mafia but also eco-terrorists and corrupt unions. Ironically the eco-terrorists are residing in hideouts that would make a Blofeld proud and are using the kind of tools that would have been very eco-unfriendly to produce. Not the kind of tree huggers you would anticipate. Else pretty much the kind of Excutioner you would expect.
