Shining Path — Duncan Long

GUNS AND GOLD

The Shining Path terrorist movement attacks a small village in Peru. The locals, led by American gold hunter Harlan Lloyd, valiantly and successfully defend their town and families. But all know that the guerrillas who lust after their country will soon return.

Into the war zone comes Captain Jefferson Davis "Oz" Carson of the Night Stalkers. His cargo is the Vice President of the U.S., arriving to offer help to the struggling democracy in its battle against the Shining Path. Then, the terrorists strike... and the Vice President is taken. Now the tables have turned, the stakes are much higher--but not as high as when Harlan Lloyd strikes a vein of gold in a mine of bloodshed.
