More About This Title The Operative

English

Another enjoyable Falconer weave of thrill and action takes the reader on a roller-coaster ride across half the globe to a nail-biting climax

 

In war-torn Iraq, Stratton’s closest friend is killed while on operation, leaving behind a grieving wife and child. When the widow moves to Los Angeles she is brutally murdered and her child placed in state custody. Stratton, rocked to his foundations by the killing, uncovers a FBI plot to hide the crime and sets off on a private operation of revenge that eventually pits him against one of the most powerful Eastern European crime syndicates in America. Hunted by the CIA and FBI as well as a brutal army of Albanian mobsters and armed only with his wits and an extraordinary skill with explosives, Stratton relentlessly pursues his private war, a fight he suspects could be his last.
