When a senator's wife and teenage
daughter are kidnapped, Thomas Crocker and SEAL Team Six are sent to
Mexico's lawless countryside, where federal agents protect instead of
hunting down violent narcotics kingpins. The two women have been
kidnapped by the Jackal, a drug lord drunk on power and influence. He
also happens to be a self-styled modern Che Guevara, who has undergone
plastic surgery to disguise his looks and justifies his brutal methods
and Machiavellian drug empire with the politics of social revolution.
The Jackal is as ruthless as he is colorful, and he must be stopped.
Crocker and the SEALs have only a
matter of hours to track down and rescue the two innocent civilians
held at the mercy of this madman. With dirty cops, dangerous cartels,
lavish tropical estates, double-crosses and plenty of bullets, Hunt the Jackal places the team in perilous new territory and demonstrates how elite warriors can adapt to and fight in any situation.
With insight into sensitive
intelligence so top-secret it can only be hinted at in fiction, Mann and
Pezzullo's extensive knowledge has for several books offered a look
behind the curtain at the life-or-death, black-ops missions executed by
only a handful of the bravest soldiers. Now, with Hunt the Jackal,
the authors focus their lens even closer to home upon the dangers that
lurk just across the U.S. border in a pulse-pounding thriller that ups
the ante even as it sheds light on the real-life heroes and villains of
the fight against narco-terrorism.
