From the Back Cover:

THE BEST-LAID PLANS

Edinburgh, Scotland. Sir Geoffrey Cornwell is brokering an unprecedented agreement. Prince Abdullah of Saudi Arabia and the Israeli Foreign Minister are scheduled to sign a historic peace treaty...until their meeting is interrupted by a missile strike that leaves the Foreign Minister of Israel dead and Cornwell and the Prince injured.

A WORST-CASE SCENARIO

Gunnery Sergeant Kyle Swanson is running covert missions in the mountains of Pakistan when he's called in to thwart another attempt on the Saudi prince's life. Though the Middle Eastern attackers aren't working for Al Qaeda, they are employed by foreign operatives who are opposed to the peace agreement--and intend to claim Saudi oil reserves for themselves.

A DEADLY OUTCOME

Meanwhile, out of hiding and back from the grave, comes the notorious sniper known as Juba. One of the world's most dangerous terrorists, Juba is Kyle Swanson's nemesis and is determined to exact revenge--at every imaginable cost...

"A renowned sniper, Coughlin recounts battlefield action with considerable energy."--Washington Post
