Publisher's Synopsis

Ultimate soldier. Ultimate mission. But will the SAS survive the inferno of Operation Desert Storm?

August 1990, and Iraqi tanks are rolling into Kuwait, putting one quarter of the world's oil reserves at risk. So begins Operation Desert Storm.

As specialists in desert warfare, the legendary SAS are plunged into a maelstrom of covert operations, often deep inside enemy territory. Their mission: reconnaissance, espionage, sabotage, the capture of prisoners and rescue of hostages.

Some are captured and tortured; others executed. But by the end of the conflict they will perform feats that are the stuff of legend. Join the adventure in this novel about the most daring soldiers in military history: the SAS!

The original Harper Brothers Company was established in New York City in 1817 and over the years published the works of Mark Twain, the Bronte Sisters, Thackeray, Dickens, John F Kennedy and Martin Luther King Jr. In 1987, Harper & Row, as it had then become, was acquired by News Corporation.
