No Quarter

Thorne has survived clandestine operations into the Hot Zones and now somebody wants him dead. Trusting no one, he makes a wild run to neutral ground so he can even the odds. He leads the predators from America to Australia, where he can lure them into the open turn and them into prey.

Once in Australia, he is joined by several aging Cold-War warriors and a damsel in distress who become his compatriots in this adventure Down Under. From the glitz of soirees in Canberra to the baking deserts of the Outback, from high above the urban jungle of Sydneys streets to the pristine waters of the Great Barrier Reef, Thorne discovers that he has become an expendable pawn in a life-and-death struggle in which drugs, money, weapons and power are the prizes that go to the winners, and human life is the cheapest commodity. Thorne comes to know the Australian people as they really are with all their tragedy, humor and courage in facing life on this rugged continent.

Thorne meets danger at every turn and, as betrayal dogs his footsteps, he finds himself in one cliffhanging crisis after another, turning Oz into a killing ground. Strangers become friends and friends become enemies as he crosses the continent in this breathtaking chase. He discovers that Man is the deadliest creature in this primitive setting and it will take all of his tradecraft and determination to survive. [via]
