When Two Tribes Go To War - Paperback

by Paddy Kelly (Author)

Lt. David Harden's lifelong dream of becoming a Navy SEAL has just been shattered, only he doesn't know it yet. Hospital Corpsman 'Doc' McKeowen has achieved his lifelong dream of joining a USMC Special Operations team but is about to be pulled from his first assignment.

With millions un U.N. humanitarian aid being funnelled into terrorist organizations by an unknown operative, the CIA expecting another major terrorist attack and the only agency asset in Beirut having been kidnapped and presumed dead, no first-hand intelligence is available.

Lt. Harden and Doc McKeowen have been assigned to investigate the possibility of the rise of a new nebulous terrorist organisation that employ no previously recognised techniques. With nothing but a fragment of information intercepted by a defector to MOSSAD and time being a factor, western intelligence has little to go on.

To compound matters the ongoing feud between the Chief of Naval Intelligence and the Director of the CIA leave the Director reticent to share information leaving the Navy in the dark about the existence if Lieutenant Harden's cover team.

It is in 1984 war-torn Lebanon that Harden and McKeowen must venture to uncover the new terrorist cohort, as well as the location and timing of their next planned attack. What they discover shocks even the Intelligence agencies of Washington D.C.

It's not what you don't know that will get you.

It's what you know absolutely for sure that ain't true that will kill you!
