They were the men called upon to do the impossible. A top-secret
unit who were tasked with what others would call suicide missions.
They were the men who had nothing to lose.
Captain Jim Vaughn is a soldier in disgrace. Commanding a
special forces mission to capture terrorists in the Philippines,
Vaughn's team is destroyed, and when the smoke clears, he is the
one made the scapegoat. Forced into the shadows by the scandal,
Vaughn is offered a chance to redeem himself when he is approached
by an enigmatic government agent looking for a few desperate
men.
Vaughn is recruited into a new team, but is shocked to meet his
new teammates, a group of men outside of the regular chain of
command. These were men who had used up all their second chances.
These are men who have crossed the line one too many times. Drug
users. Felons. The insane. The terminally ill. These are now the
men that Vaughn must trust with his life.
This group of outcasts and misfits has been assembled for two
reasons--they are skilled, and they are expendable. These are the
kinds of men who are needed to attempt missions the government
can't acknowledge, the country can't condone, and the team cannot
fail. But the deeper Vaughn gets into the unique group, the more he
realizes that the organization may be concealing more than the rap
sheets of its most unusual operators. A team of such unique
properties is the perfect tool to use againt America's
enemies...and possibly America itself.
