The Action/Adventure series continues! In the tradition of Don Pendleton's Executioner and Warren Murphy's Remo Williams exploits! ONE MAN'S WAR

It hadn't been planned that way. But in a war, plans don't always work out-even Colonel Tobin's plans.

Kidnappings of American businessmen in South America have increased. If the demands for ransom money and release of political prisoners were not met, the victims are brutalized and executed. It could not go on. Foreign investment in South America was dropping off, economies were teetering... Colonel Tobin is called in-for a secret military assault. The target is Mexico, where the terrorists are believed to be hiding in the Sierra Madres. The terrorists are lead by one of the most ruthless men in South America, thought to be dead. He has brain and brawn on his side, and the rugged Mexican terrain.

Tobin attacks...and does not succeed. The hostages are not released, and Tobin's Army loses some its most effective fighters. There is no way the Colonel can accept this. He orders another assault on the camp. He himself will lead the it. And it may very well be his last war...
