The Right for Freedom is a battle without limits
In Houston Texas, an oil refinery belonging to one of the largest multi-national energy companies is destroyed by a 'backpack' nuclear device. This is just one of many attacks against the same company around the world. Taking responsibility for the destruction is a group that calls themselves G.A.M.M.A. and their mission is simple - to end the oppression of small nations by global corporations and governments who plunder the world's natural resources in the name of profit.
Enter Army Brigadier General Jason Richter, the head of Task Force Talon, a special unit set up the US National Security Advisor in order to track the terrorists and anticipate their next move. Richter believes there is only one strategy in which to snare his opponents- find, pursue, engage and kill. The only way to do this is to play them at their own game. Be unconventional and swift, and brutal enough to strike fear into the hearts of the most dedicated terrorist.
But are the enemy what they seem? Or are they part of something deadlier and more sinister than Richter could ever have imagined?
