A disappearance. An invasion. And the return of a legend. Tensions between Siberia and Moscow are already running high, when the sudden disappearance of top-tier Siberian politicians and oil executives sparks open outrage east of the Urals. With relations strained, Moscow needs a new oil source, and quickly. A dangerous plan is set in motion.

The United States is furious at this act of international piracy. Admiral Morgan and the Navy SEALs manage to persuade the legendary commander Rick Hunter to return. The mission: to hammer Argentina's military and free the Falklands. For Hunter, the assignment strikes close to home. His English brother-in-law and an SAS special forces team are trapped on East Falkland, on the run from Argentine shoot-to-kill man-hunt, out of contact...
