From the Publisher
A thrilling classic from a master of the genre.

From the Back Cover
Thrown out of the SAS for insubordination, Gord Brown spends his dreary, uneventful days on a remote salmon farm in Scotland. Everything changes when he is approached by three Guatemalan Indians, who are desperately searching for a fighting man, someone to mastermind an uprising against the brutal military dictatorship who have massacred so many of their people. Suddenly his life has a purpose once again.

The four men land in Cuba and fly across into the jungles of Guatemala, where they rapidly assemble a guerilla army. But as they approach the capital city, the government becomes increasingly threatened by their presence and is determined to annihilate them at all cost...

I normally love Gerald Seymour, but this was rubbish and has only escaped the bin for completeness sake. If your reading mate sorry, but this is not Journeyman tailor or Harry's Game.

So bad it's hard to believe the same author wrote good books as well. The characters are so stereotypical you cringe, the tooth fairy has more credibility than these, and the plot itself is pretty dire.
