Seven years after the 9/11 attacks, the hunt for Osama bin Laden is as relentless as ever. Yet there are more objectives than the hunt for infamous mass murderer.The four-man Ranger fireteam led by Captain Robert Cash, with newly married Lieutenant Jack Grant his second-in-command, discover the enemy comes in many guises. On a search and destroy mission in the northern city of Mazari Sharif, a woman falsely alleges the Rangers have invaded the home of an innocent Afghan businessman, murdered him, and raped his wife. The cops arrest the four men and toss them into a tiny, fetid cell to await trial and possible execution.Inside the squalid prison, Jack Grant is working on a plan to save his comrades. Yet fate is about to intervene. A senior officer, the second-in-command at Bagram, Marine Colonel Gerry Taylor, is kidnapped by the Taliban and taken in secrecy to Mazari Sharif. His jailer is none other than the woman who alleged the Rangers raped her after they murdered her ‘innocent’ husband, the local leader of the Taliban warband before he met his death.The Pentagon wants Colonel Taylor returned, and they send Colonel Collins, an aide to the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs, to put pressure on the commander at Bagram to get it done. The Chairman wants the best men to get Taylor back from his kidnappers. The Rangers managed to escape from the cell and return to Bagram. To be sent back to Mazari Sharif, where intelligence wrongly believes the Taliban are holding Colonel Taylor. When they arrive in the city, they discover the truth is worse. Much, much worse.Special Operations: Grant’s Attack is an incredible story of tough, violent men fighting a battle against both the Taliban, murderous bandits, Afghan police, and Pentagon dirty tricks.
