In the final weeks of his US Navy SEAL tour in Afghanistan, Lieutenant Rafe Stoner leads his unit in a desperate mission to rescue the daughter of a diplomat, an aid worker kidnapped and held for ransom. The girl is found raped, tortured and murdered. Soon after, he leaves the Navy. In his new life he launches a colorful career as the part owner of the brothel, and in his spare time, a gun for hire.
His best friend is Greg Blum, who works a remote farm outside Jalalabad with his pretty wife Faria, his three adopted children and a Marine-trained dog named Archer. The Blum family enjoy an uneventful life. Until someone attempts to wipe out the entire family in a vicious blaze of gunfire.
The trail to the killer leads to Russia. And to an assassin known as the Widowmaker. To an impossible and bitter fight to defend the family he regards as his own. A fight that will leave a long trail of corpses along the way. Black-Ops: Heroes of Afghanistan –Widowmaker is by the bestselling author of many Special Ops novels. These include the popular SEAL Team Bravo stories, the Special Operations: Grant series, Echo Six, and a number of Devil's Guard titles.
