A mining conglomerate discovers a platinum deposit worth billions beneath the soil of the tiny Republic of Zangaro. What follows is one of the most detailed and credible accounts of mercenary warfare, arms dealing, and operational planning ever put to fiction: how you plan a coup, finance it, recruit for it, arm it, and execute it. Forsyth's background as a journalist gave him access to the real world of mercenary operations that makes this novel feel less like fiction than a field manual.
