Kyle Monroe is one of this exclusive fraternity. Still recovering from a mission gone disastrously wrong, Monroe requests a field assignment and is paired with a partner and dispatched to Pakistan, instructed to take out a prominent member of al Qaeda. But the local tribe to which he's assigned want to use his deadly skills to settle a private war with a neighbouring tribe. If Monroe and his partner want to get out of Pakistan alive, they will have to rely on their skills, their experience--and absolutely nothing else.
