WHO WINS, THE SAS OR THE NAVY SEALS?

When an SAS team is sent to train government troops in Karmanga, a poverty-stricken and war-torn republic in the dark heart of southern Africa, Geordie Sharp is caught up in the most dangerous and difficult assignment of his military career.

When the SAS men see that the rebels are boosted by ex-US Navy SEAL mercenaries, they begin to sense a hidden agenda, and they know that things are going to get messy...

Tenth Man Down is a pulse-pounding story that sinks its teeth in and doesn't let go.
