Summary:
Who killed Whiskey 2-2?
And why won’t it stay dead?
A marine sniper group on a objective in tribal territories on the Afghan-Pakistan border, Whiskey 2-2 is ambushed by specialists using the latest high-tech shooting gear. Badly wounded, the team’s exclusive survivor, Gunnery Sergeant Ray Cruz, aka “the Luxury cruise Missile,” is set to complete his work. He almost succeeds when a mystery blast terminates his organization, leaving a thirty-foot crater in which a building used to become – and where Sergeant about Dead No Cruz was meant to end up being hiding.
Months pass. Ray’s target, an Afghan warlord named Ibrahim Zarzi, occasionally called “The Beheader,” turns into an American asset in the region and beyond, beloved by Condition, the Administration, as well as the Agency. He gets there in Washington for consecration as Our Man in Kabul. But so does a incomprehensible radio transmission, in last year’s code. It’s from Whiskey 2-2.
MISSION WILL BE COMPLETED.
CONFIDENCE IS HIGH.
Is Ray Cruz back again? Has he eliminated rogue, is normally he insane, or just insanely angry? Will he succeed, though his antagonists today are the CIA, the FBI, and the same team of bad children that nearly killed him in Zabol province? Not to mention Bob Lee Swagger and a lovely CIA agent named Susan Okada who gives Swagger a lot more than only a patriotic reason to take the case.
Swagger, the legendary hero of seven of Hunter’s novels from Stage of Effect to last year’s bestselling I, Sniper, is certainly recruited with the FBI to stop the Cruise Missile from reaching his focus on. The problem is usually that the more Swagger learns in what happened in Zabol, the greater he queries the U.S. government’s support of Zarzi and the more he recognizes with Cruz as hunter instead of prey.
Using its hallmark accuracy on modern killing technologies, Dead Zero features an older, more contemplative Swagger, but never lets up on the razor-sharp dialogue, vivid characterizations, extraordinary action scenes, and dazzling prose define Hunter’s landmark series. And with this installment, the stunning revelations – both politics and private-will leave listeners begging for more long after the last bullet discovers its way home.
