Assignment Black Gold

Sam Durell has received a warning. Anyone who spends even a moment in Lubinda, he is told, will not stay safe, and any rest, meal, or sleep will bring him closer to death. For a spy, this is an ordinary kind of danger. Durell has spent his career living with threats, has learned to trust almost nobody, and works as a chief field agent for K Section, where staying unknown is what keeps an agent alive. This time, though, his cover has been exposed, and he finds himself facing death at the hands of unseen terrorists determined to seize control of Lubinda, a small African nation. Their chief advantage is oil. Durell has an advantage of his own, and it is himself.
