Description
SECOND EDITION
The CIA employs contractors recruited from elite military units for bodyguard and security work in high risk environments and for deniable operations. The most skilled and lethal of these operatives are known as scorpions.
One scorpion is a former Airborne Ranger and disgruntled ex-CIA paramilitary operator named Avery, codenamed Carnivore
When a high ranking CIA officer is abducted by terrorists in Tajikistan, Avery is tasked with securing the hostage’s release before dozens of classified operations and agents are compromised.
But a high-stakes raid on a terrorist safe house in lawless Gorno-Badakhshan Province yields clues pointing in another direction entirely, and Avery and his team of paramilitary operators are soon unraveling a conspiracy involving an American traitor, double agents, and Russian gangsters to arm the Taliban with weapons of mass destruction.
From the remote terrorist enclaves of Central Asia, to the nuclear facilities of the former Soviet Union, Scorpion is a riveting debut novel packed with gritty, violent action and authentic details that will appeal to readers of Vince Flynn, Brad Taylor and Andy McNab.
