WAR & COMBAT FICTION. The Company has a special secret operation planned for one of their top agents: the leaders of the Taliban and al-Qaeda terrorist groups are hiding out in Pashtun country, and they must be eliminated. The job falls to a man they have named Frank Morgan-after the Company's deadliest agent-who stood out as a recruit at Quantico and whose skills resemble those of his namesake. The other soldiers claim Frank's abilities as a sniper and a tracker border on the supernatural and are more than willing to complete this mission with him. Frank begins his adventure in Afghanistan with another Company-appointed soldier: an indestructible, lyrical Irishman with a cutting sense of humor and a bottle of Jameson never far from hand. Pashtun-in paperback for the first time-depicts the challenges of military special ops in a boulder-filled landscape, and is told with compassion for those asked to fight the battles.
