Sgt MacAllister (aka Torkareva) is now in Bosnia taking out snipers from both sides when she is recognised by an ex collegue from the KGB, hence putting her life in extreme danger. General Bowmaker then has to organise air cover using the November squadron to cover her extraction. The book is completely compelling from beginning to end, with 'Mac' being hunted by local milita and special forces (belonging to a group of dissident russian KGB and Military leaders) while the rescue operation is planned, with one of the pilots becoming increasingly angered by the UN's lack of action in Bosnia. The flying and combat sequences are fantastic with the last 5 chapters flying through. The ending is a surprise but it seems to be the way of the author of late. This is the best author on the planet and this is why I have purchased all of his books at considerable cost(£250 or$400). The only problems are that the planes have stealth paint(plane blends into the background) and this is only at the testing stage at the moment and the Wing Commander belongs in WW2. Still, it's a fantastic book.
