When a series of devastating terror attacks brought down the United States, Conor and Barb assumed they were safe in their compound. They had everything they needed. They were armed and highly trained. But then, Barb was kidnapped. The kidnappers didn’t know why Conor was known as The Mad Mick. They didn’t know the fear and respect his name invoked in the shadowy underworld of covert operations. They didn’t know that when it came to protecting his family, he was without conscience, without compassion, and without equal. But they would soon find out.

When I returned home from my latest deployment in the U.S. Army, my life began to fall apart. One night, after heavy drinking, I placed my 1911 pistol in my mouth and thought a prayer—silence. I deactivated the safety and began to slowly squeeze the trigger. BANG! I dropped the pistol, and I looked around me, but there was no blood. The bang I heard was the Bible on my desk falling and hitting the floor. I fell to my knees and asked God for forgiveness. I surrendered to Jesus Christ and asked him to help me. He answered.

Publisher's summary
In post-apocalyptic Australian desert, a small band of survivors wages a desperate battle against ruthless Revelationist terrorists. The city survivors set out to join Sundown's commandos on the edge of the Simpson Desert, but Sergeant Nulla and his motley group soon find out that the trek to sanctuary is not as safe as they'd hoped.
Forced to defend their friends against a brutal assault and confronted with certain death, they react with ferocious brutality of their own. In the unforgiving Australian deserts and the fractured city of Adelaide, Sundown and his commando seek to survive any way they can.
This is a stand-alone novel, and can be enjoyed even if you haven't listened to other books in the series.

In the U.S. Marine Corps, the most dangerous job in combat is that of the sniper. With no backup and little communication with the outside world, these men disappear for weeks on end in the wilderness with nothing but intellect and iron will to protect them - as they watch, wait, and finally strike. But of all of the snipers who ever hunted human prey, one man stands above the rest as the most legendary fighting man to ever pull a trigger. That man is Carlos Hathcock.
