description: The new president of El Salvador has done little to curb the bloody hit-and-run strikes by Communist rebels and the knee-jerk response of the Salvadoran army. When a key U.S. State Department official is assassinated in broad daylight, Uncle Sam fears a new wave of concentrated Red support. Phoenix Force is dispatched to find the target and eliminate it. On the war-torn streets of the capital city, the Force jumps from the fire and into the frying pan. With the CIA and a load of heavy politicos on their back, they are forced to hold hands with the fanatical head of the national police - a mad dog with his own visions for "saving" El Salvador. But even as the Phoenix warriors risk life and limb, they get the feeling that no one really wants peace in Central America.
