Description: New book, 318 pages. In Autumn 2001, a combined SBS and SAS force was called upon to launch a top secret mission. British intelligence had uncovered what they believed was a terrorist plot to attack London with a devestating weapon. This book follows this band of warriors from an action packed assault on the high seas to the harsh lands of Afghanistan, as their hunt for the mechants of death continues. The story culminates in the single greatest battle in the Afghan conflict - the brutal seige of Qala-I-Janghi, and ancient mud-walled fortress crammed full of hundreds of Al Qaeda and Taliban fighters in which 500 terrorists would be killed. This book chronicles every twist and turn of that battle as it unfolds hour by hour, until the shocking finale.
