    Summary

    Colonel John ‘Hannibal’ Smith’s alpha team is like no other at Nha Trang. Small, agile and lethal they have the best mission record on base. They also get in the most trouble. The band of misfit soldiers that he’s assembled includes Captain HM ‘Howlin’ Mad’ Murdock, who’s prowess in the air, genius in black ops, and natural, quiet leadership ability have made him an indispensible part of Hannibal’s team. But when he’s lovesick, he can be a real pain in the ass to deal with.

    And Murdock’s current love interest turns out to be a young, female CIA agent, Sydney Wilson. She creates a whirlwind of lust, longing and distrust when she arrives on the scene. Hannibal’s problem is that her usefulness in reconnaissance actually seems to outweigh the fact that she’s a troublesome woman.

    Can Hannibal utilize another misfit to the advantage of the US in this conflict? Maybe. But Sydney has secrets and agendas of her own that may just lead to the downfall of Smith’s A-Team.

    Third full-length story in my Decent into Darkness series. Follows Falling in Love with a Lie. It is very helpful, though not absolutely necessary, to read the previous stories in the series first.

    This story is complete.

    Murdock: "I got shot down!"
    Face: "That was a terrible plan!"
