Summary

Two armed men board a 727 all but forgotten at an airfield in Angola. Hijacking the jet, they then slit the throat of the lone crew and fly to parts unknown. The consternation is immediate, as the CIA, FBI, and other agencies race to find out what happened, in the process elbowing one another in the sides a little too vigorously. Fed up, the President turns to an outside investigator to determine the truth, Delta Force major Carlos Guillermo Castillo. A West Point graduate, a pilot, and a veteran of Desert Storm, Castillo has a sharp eye for the facts--and the reality behind them. Traveling undercover, he flies to Africa, and there, helped and hindered by unexpected allies and determined enemies, begins to untangle a story of frightening dimensions
