Aggressor
In the Middle East, following the Gulf War of 1991, unknown terrorists kidnap a Russian delegation visiting Syria and the US ambassador to Saudi Arabia and his staff. Three men come together to find and rescue these hostages: Col. Ulm, a US special operations officer, his Russian counterpart, Col. Shabanov, and Tom Girling, correspondent for a British news magazine.
Girling may have the clue to the abductions and those responsible, information from a journalist friend in the Middle East who has told him about a powerful group calling themselves “Angels of Judgment” and their leader, “The Sword.” But very little is known about this group, and the correspondent who provided the information has disappeared himself. Girling has much more than a journalistic interest in terrorism – his wife was killed by a band of terrorists as he was forced to watch, helpless to try to prevent her death.
