Publisher's Summary

"The writing is lean and filmic." (Janet Morris, author of The Sacred Band of Stepsons series)

"This is what G.I. Joe movies should have been like." (M. Joseph Murphy, author of Council of Peacocks)

Afghanistan, 2014: Two weeks before the final withdrawal of all coalition forces, a small unit of army rangers is attacked and destroyed by a private army known only as Olympus. The survivors are captured and held in a fortress in the Pamir Mountains of Kazinistan. There, they must effect a daring escape from their captors and at the same time find the secret of the mysterious Code of War. 

The first of Jim Roberts' epic, action-packed series delivers nonstop action and fast-paced thrills!

"Never a dull moment...there are moments when the story is frightening in its realism!" (Ava Armstrong, author of A Sense of Duty)

Author's first book

Excellent performance by the narrator/author! I genuinely thought there were multiple people voicing the characters at different times in the reading.
This is my first time listening to a war/operative themed book, and I found it quite enjoyable! It did feel a little campy- like the Avengers were being assembled at one part, but the rest was engaging and action-packed!
