Synopsis:

After assembling his own "private security" force made up of the able and disenchanted from the U.S. military and British Secret Intelligence Service, Mad Dog and his team are off to Angola to recover a missing cache of gemstones. In a land where bloody chaos is the norm, anything could derail their mission: from terrorist-linked revolutionaries to CIA treachery to the inevitable firestorm when all of them clash. With a huge payday on the line, Hertzog's men will need to prove their worth in the jungles of hell . . . or die trying.
