Deep Strike

Bag om Deep Strike

Vietnam, 1968. Troops are stood down during Tet, the annual Vietnamese celebration that takes place every January. Saigon and Hanoi have made a 'Gentleman's Agreement, ' for a temporary cessation of hostilities. Soldiers breathe a sigh of relief as the bullets cease firing and the shelling stops. But the ruthless rulers of North Vietnam, the Politburo, are no gentlemen. Bullets fly, and mortar shells explode as Hanoi breaks the agreement and the violence resumes. Cities across South Vietnam come under fire, including the ancient city of Hue, where Rick Heller is based at Phu Bai. During a series of firefights inside the Citadel, his unit kills a Vietcong sniper. The man carried documents that reveal the existence of a 'sniper school, ' north of the DMZ. The enemy plans to unleash teams of skilled marksmen into the South to support the new offensive. MACV takes the threat seriously. Rick Heller's Team of Long Range Reconnaissance Patrol specialists is tasked to cross the DMZ, and pinpoint the location in preparation for a massive airstrike to wipe it out of existence. Landed by Chinook a few klicks south of the Zone, they hit problems when the helicopter is hit by heavy machine gun fire, killing the crew. The lieutenant leading the Team makes a fateful decision to split up, and Heller continues to lead his small party into the forbidding North. Despite hitting a series of obstacles, and despite his suspicion the enemy seems to have advanced knowledge of every move they make, they reach the objective. Only to uncover a terrifying secret. A plot to undermine everything the US is fighting for, yet one which they refuse to acknowledge. The mission becomes a race against time to prevent the Tet Offensive from becoming a steamroller that could carry the brutal Red tide across the whole of Southeast Asia and beyond. Black Ops Vietnam: Recon II is an action-packed spin-off series from the Black Ops Vietnam series. A full-length novel by the bestselling author of many Spec Ops books. These include the popular SEAL Team Bravo stories, Heroes of Afghanistan, Raider, Echo Six, and Devil's Guard titles.
