Product Description
Jim ran through the woods, more worried about being a target for the sniper if he stopped than he was about being observed. The only problem was that the doors into the carriage house were all in a direct line of fire from where the sniper was located inside the house. Voss had already figured this out. As Jim ran up to the side of the carriage house farthest away from the house, a climbing rope and attached nylon strap dropped out of the window. Jim sent up the M-1 and his pack with the ammo. When the rope came back down Jim climbed into the loop and worked his way up the stonewall with Voss pulling the rope. The stone ended about seven feet below the windowsill and Jim jumped catching the edge of the sill. Voss continued to pull the rope, making the pull up easy and Jim was soon inside. Voss quickly turned and MP-5 in hand ran to the other side of the building, worried that some uninvited guests had gotten closer while he was helping Jim.

A fast moving and entertaining book July 19, 2005
2 out of 3 found this review helpful
Despite some initial reservations as to the storyline described in the book's description, I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book. Being ex-military and knowing the author myself; Lee Sweetapple weaves a tight story line and keeps the action going all the way to the end.
People who've served in our military will enjoy the book as it reminds them of the camraderie they likely experienced while serving in their respective branches of the armed forces. Lee Sweetapple shines the light on the many risks of covert action early in the book and problems faced by operatives in the field.
The action-packed storyline progresses to New Hampshire where the author richly describes the surroundings and helps the reader visualize each character's actions in the close quarter combat sequences.
Highly recommended reading for fans of the genre so richly brought to life by writers such as W.E.B Griffin and Tom Clancy.
