Inhaltsangabe

A coup d’état, unbridled greed and oil spark a desperate struggle, with consequences for all of humanity. In Beijing and Buenos Aires, powerful men, driven by insatiable lust for power, plot and maneuver to dominate the world. From London to the windswept seemingly insignificant Falkland Islands, brave men and women must battle enemies from without and within. In the air, on land and at sea, nations clash with explosive blood-stained fury, in an all or nothing battle for the future of mankind. Argentine Defense Minister Jorge Rota, after a mafioso-like rise to the pinnacle of wealth and stature, determines to catapult Argentina to South American superpower status. However, a beautiful woman threatens his plans for limitless power and god-like glory. Capitán de Fragata Julio Bandera, haunted by memories of a long dead father, sees a Second Falklands War as a golden opportunity. He will drive himself and his men to the breaking point, in a fanatical quest for vengeance. British SIS Deputy Director Sandy Woodward refuses to meekly submit, even though his political masters demand it. In a world of dirty tricks where survival is the only measure of success, he ruthlessly battles enemies abroad and at home for the sake of his country and the world. Three Royal Navy officers, old friends, are cast into the unforgiving blood-fueled cauldron of war, yet again. Outnumbered, outgunned and without hope, they endure the ultimate test of duty, honor and devotion to Queen and Country. Bullets, bombs, missiles, torpedoes and the harsh South Atlantic environment threaten combatants and innocents, caught in the crossfire. Many will not survive. Those who do will be changed forever.
