Synopsis: The men of ODA-555, better known as Triple Nickel, were the first unit to hit Afghanistan after 9/11. Taking the War on Terror to the enemy’s front door, their bravery isn’t just the stuff of legend—it’s the stuff of life in the Special Forces.
Captain James Pharaoh and his Special Forces team are still fighting the hard fight against a fanatical and deadly foe. The new leader of Al Qaeda in Afghanistan is Sheik Hassan—a ruthless Jihadist with sinister new plans to defeat the Western infidels. But it seems that whenever Pharaoh gets close to nailing Hassan’s hide, the terrorist slips away.
It turns out that a pair of rogue CIA agents are running their own operation for certain American politicians with their own agenda—and it’s costing lives every day. Now, Pharaoh is caught between the dirty dealings of his own government, dissension within his own team, and finding Hassan before all hell breaks loose…
