Night Hunters — Eric Meyer

When a bloodthirsty band of Taliban commanders escapes from prison, a SEAL unit led by Master Chief Tony Chase is called in to track them down. All of them under sentence of death for mass murder. Each one is a serious threat to the Coalition and can rally hundreds of fighters to join the Islamist cause and begin a new onslaught. Together, they are more than a threat, they are an army.

But from the very start this is no ordinary mission. The terrain is the most violent and rugged region of Taliban held Helmand. Time is not on their side, for with every day that passes, more young recruits arrive to strengthen the Taliban numbers. To make matters worse, the jihadis have taken Christian missionaries' hostage, and are using those that have not already been murdered as human shields. Outnumbered and outgunned, the slightest mistake will mean death for them and for the missionaries held by the enemy.

SEAL Strike: Night Hunters is the second short novel in the SEAL Strike series. Night Hunters is a collaboration between Todd McLeod and Eric Meyer, the bestselling author of more than fifty war novels.
