Another good one from Meyer.Abe has just learned he's got a medical problem. His right arm keeps going numb. He's worried that whatever it is may knock him out of his chosen career and Echo 6.While trying to deal with this Abe gets word that a UN Commissioner and a busload of Christian Children were taken by Hammas and Abe's boss Admiral Woods wants Echo 6 to go get em. Abe also finds out that his girl Nava is missing in Beirut. This has Abe worried sick. He's gotta get her back in wartorn Beirut.So begins one great read.Abe is dealing with his medical issues, the renewed fighting in Beirut, a less than friendly or cooporative Captain from Echo 1 and his fear that his girl is either a prisoner or dead.Abe is so worried about his girl that it interferres with his job as leader of Echo 6. This is something his second, Welland, takes very seriously. He speaks with Abe about it and Abe has to agree. He's not at his best right now and cedes command of Echo 6 to Welland. Abe is still hell on wheels with one good arm. A fact he proves time and time again.Abes men know about his arm and they are worried and protective as hell of their commander. Much to Abes amusement they decide he needs bodyguarding.We also have a psycho billionaire Saudi who buys Abes girl. Girls don't last long around this psycho. The money he pays for the girls helps fund Hammas and Hezbullah. A guy that needs to go big time. A guy Abe will have no problem killing when he catches up with him.Loads of action, a Mossad undercover agent and a Lebanese pilot who pretty much saves the day.Just a great read and well worth those five stars.
