Publisher's Synopsis
New nations are fragile things. They are often born from the ashes of conflict. The twenty-four-year-long struggle endured by the people of East Timor to live free is no different. Their struggle has come to an end-or has it? The United Nations is helping the Timorese build their new country, but Indonesia has no intention of giving up its former 27th state. The fight to win freedom is over. The fight to keep it has now begun. The secret war raging on both sides of the new border between East and West Timor is being fought with the weapons of deception, propaganda, and espionage. In the middle of this war is a simple American police officer who has come to help, but instead steps off into the deep end of an intriguing world of spies. This thrilling prequel to Guns For Hire, Red Zone Run: Mosul takes us into a fourth world country's fight for freedom-one which continues today-where freedom seems as elusive as sunlight in triple canopy jungle. Join Jesse as he threads his way through the jungles of East Timor, UN politics, and lack of outside support to play out this game of intelligence for the survival of a people who just want to live free.
