Two hostages. One cartel. Zero margin for error.

When diplomacy fails, the Covert Ops team doesn't. In the Caribbean heat, two young travellers have vanished, and ex-military operator Steve Barker and his crew are sent on an off-the-books rescue mission: get the hostages out, wipe out the cartel, and leave no trace.

But nothing about the job feels clean. The intel is suspect, the contact is hiding something, and the money is too tidy for a desperate extraction. From the streets of San Juan to the old walls of Castillo San Cristóbal, every step draws the team deeper into a web of betrayal, ambushes, and violence. What starts as a straightforward mission quickly turns into a fight for survival, with gunfire, chaos, and no guarantee of backup.

Cut off from command and surrounded by enemies, the team must depend on training, instinct, and the hard-earned bond of brotherhood to bring their people home. If they hesitate, the cartel wins. If they push too hard, they may never make it out.

Covert Ops delivers gritty realism, black humour, and authentic military banter from a battlefield mindset forged in combat. Listen as the mission unfolds through urban chases, Caribbean firefights, and a high-risk extraction that leaves nowhere to hide. It's the kind of audiobook that keeps you locked in on your commute, your walk, or wherever you need a story with teeth.

Fans of Tom Clancy, Andy McNab, Lee Child, and Mark Greaney will feel right at home with this no-polish, high-stakes thriller where loyalty is tested, PTSD runs under the surface, and redemption comes only at the point of impact.

The mission is simple: rescue the innocent, punish the guilty, and survive the extraction.
