One damned good read.This one starts with Staff Sgt. Brad Thompson on patrol in Afghanistan. There are several vehicle on this patrol and problems abound.  Now the radio's, all the radio's quitt working. They have interal radio contact but nothing external. They are headed home to FOB Bremmel.Worried about the non contact with base, Thompson suggests that the main body of the  patrol vehicles  wait while he and two hum vee's head for base. Thomspons MRAP is heavily armored and carries a .50 caliber turret gun. He and his men plus the two hum vee's will head on the FOB Bremmel and send back choppers to escort the rest of the vehicles. His Lt approves and Thompson and the others head for base.When they get to Bremmel the FOB is burning and people are running all along the perimeter and pouring over the walls. The base was being mobbed.So begins one damned fine read.This one has Thompson, his men, two Navy SEALS, loads of almost unkillable walking dead, the Taliban, a plot that has gone way awry, the realization of the Primal virus, a secure place to stay and Thompson and his men in a fight for their very lives.One damned fine read. Five Stars.
