Product Description
The #1 New York Times-bestselling series returns with a story as up-to-date as the headlines.
The novels of W. E. B. Griffin featuring Delta Force officer Charley Castillo and his band of troubleshooters have won wide praise for their realism, action, and "punchy prose that connects like a right hook" (Chicago Tribune).
Now, still in Argentina tying up loose ends from his investigation into the UN oil-for-food scandal, Castillo is startled when a young man is marched into his office at gunpoint, caught trying to sneak through the fence. It turns out he's an American officer, a lieutenant assigned to the embassy in Paraguay. A key agent for the DEA has disappeared while trying to interdict drugs and very little is being done about it, for phony diplomatic reasons. The lieutenant's heard of Castillo, knows what he's done, and wants his help in getting the agent back. More than that, he's got an innovative plan for dealing with the drug lords themselves.
Intrigued, Castillo gets permission to try it, but the President has just one warning for him: Don't get caught. Charley couldn't agree more-but it might turn out to be something easier said than done. . . .
Filled with Griffin's trademark rich characters and cutting-edge drama, this is an exceptional novel by "a writer of true virtuosity and talent" (Fort Worth Star-Telegram).

 Another W E B Griffin Classic July 3, 2008
Another classic from WEB Griffin the masterr storyteller. This book is a great read and will be enjoyed by the Legion of Griffins loyal fans. As a reader of Griffins works for over twelve years, I look forward to the continued work with his son. I only hope that he will continue the tradition his father has established.

In this video I discuss Griffin's books and give you an idea of who will like them. I do not dwell on the plots or give away the stories.. instead, I help you decide if Griffin is for you and the people on your gift list. By Frank Derfler author of A Glint in Time [...]

 W.E.B. has lost it April 29, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I've read every book W.E.B. Griffin has put out. His last two have not been good. I would liked to see the author's outline for this book.
1.Devote 20 pages to every character mentioned in books 1-3
2.40 pages about the dog
3.Charlie needs a son, work that in some how
4.Wrap up final action sequence in 20 pages or less
