Riassunto
For Peter Moore, a young Army Airborne Ranger newly assigned to a special operations team in Indochina, a secret war was not what he had prepared for. Assigned to a covert special operations unit designated Delta-19, Moore soon became familiar with the CIA's thinly veiled paramilitary arm, Air America. Along with a mercenary force of indigenous troops, the war Delta-19 had been fighting was deep in the shadows. When a series of questionable events places one of D-19's action teams at great risk, and one of their top operators is killed under mysterious circumstances, the relationship between the Delta team and Air America is severely strained.When information indicates one of the CIA case officers may have gone rogue, along with a hostile force of Burmese bandits and drug lords become involved in the trafficking of opium, the troops of Delta-19 stand at the edge of mutiny. Unsupported, operating in the black, the men of the Delta-19 must choose between honor and duty, or something yet to be defined.Track of the Dragon places Specialist Peter Moore into an experience beyond anything he could ever have imagined. In time the young soldier will undergo changes that touch every aspect of his life. But the lives of many others will also hang in the balance, depending in large part on his skill, and the choices that he alone can make.
