This follow-up to Insurrection Red and Blacklight finds the Blacklight Team in South Africa, where it must rescue hostages from a racist/terrorist group that wants the launch code to a missile system that will hold the world at bay.
Mr Murray has a wonderful series on his hands, my only complaint is they haven't they made at least one movie about Getts and Peach yet? With so many bad films, these seem a natural winner because of the great characters Murray builds for us. I read the stories almost non-stop when I started them. At first glance the cover made me think these books were just excuses to fire guns and blow things up, what a plesant surprise to find he can really write great stories and facinate us with tech warfare as well. Move over Clancey, you've had your turn.
It work both ways...

First let me say, I admire Mr. Murray's books. I have only one nitpick. With food poioning, the body tries expelling the contents of the stomach and intestines from both ends. Therefore, Peach would have been cleaning more than the Princess' hands and face.Otherwise, I was kept guessing as to who the "insider" was and how he/she would be dealt with.I'm not ready to have Peach enter retirement. It would be interesting to have Peach and the Princess' relationship need the help of the team of Peach and Getts.

This is the first book I have read by Mike Murray, but if the rest of his books are as good as this one then He has a best selling series. I rank him up there with the best, his storyline is great and believable the plot is good his characters are alive and you could follow them into another story. Most Seal series are too phony, the people are plastic types all from the same mold, too perfect never really seem to be alive. Mike has done a terrific job of building each of his characters. I look forward to the next one.
