NAME: Patrick Coonan
CODENAME: Delta
OPERATION: Scorpion Tail
ANNOTATIONS: Paired with the dazzling redhead Jessica Fitts, a.k.a. Agent Phi, Delta is sent to Colombia on a joint mission with a loose cannon from the OCF's Moscow Bureau. Apparently, Coonan's orders are to eliminate a "ghost from the past" and neutralize the threat said "ghost" poses by opening a Weapons of Mass Destruction bazaar in the jungles of South America, with an eye to supplying Communist guerrillas in Colombia and a certain Muslim terror group preparing to launch its own brand of Jihad against Uncle Sam. But in a murky world, where nothing is what it seems, Agent Delta soon will learn that sometimes one must pact with the devil to avoid a greater evil.
A SOBERING, FAST-PACED THRILLER IN THE STYLE OF IAN FLEMING'S 007 AND DONALD HAMILTON'S MATT HELM.
