Asian Crucible — Don Pendleton

IN-COUNTRY

A rogue CIA agent is masterminding a plot to involve an angry America in a Southeast Asian conflict. He has produced a POW held by the Communists for twenty years, and he's got the Chinese Mafia fanning the fires with bloody strikes along the Thai border.

The situation is pushing a lot of people's buttons, and Mack Bolan knows unbridled rage can unleash all kinds of hell. Soldiers and civilians alike are gearing up and taking sides as war clouds loom, with the threat of a nuke-armed North Korea entering the game.

Going undercover in Thailand, Bolan races against time to expose the renegade spook before the powder keg blows. Vietnam is a war the U.S. is trying to forget. Now the Executioner will make sure of it.
