Death Force by Matt Lynn

death-force.jpgTen Men. One robbery.
They think it's the perfect crime.
Except for one thing. The man they are robbing is the main drugs dealer in Helmand, Afghanistan. And a deadly battle with the Taliban is about to begin.

Death Force tells the story of a group of mercenaries, working for a Private Military Corporation called Dudley Emergency Forces, or DEF. But the men in the unit call it Death Inc. They are hired by the British Army to take out the headquarters of the warlord backing and financing the Taliban. Their prize? The $50 million in gold and diamonds stored in his fort. And a deadly chase across the badlands of Helmand Province is about to begin.

"Brilliant, realistic and riveting: blistering front-line action" -- Chris Ryan.
