Operation Musketeer: A Historical War Novel (Airmen Series Book 6) - Paperback

Book 6 in The Airmen Series

He thought the world would stand idle.  He thought wrong…

Three nations conspire and invade Egypt in a trumped-up war. Bombs fall on Cairo. Thousands of civilians die by the day. The old empires want what was once theirs – the canal. They seem unstoppable, but are they?

A Prime Minister is filled with hubris, bent on destroying the Egyptian army and overthrowing their upstart leader — Nassar. His nation’s honor, his elite commandos, his legacy, all on the line. Victory seems assured. But not so fast…

Paratroopers drop from sky. Outnumbered and outgunned, they fight for survival. It’s hard to fight the Egyptian tanks with bullets. Their only advantage — unwavering aggression. But not even the elite can hang on forever and time is running out as the enemy closes in. Where are the reinforcements they were promised?

The one thing their plan never counted on… betrayal!

Based on unbelievable true events, Operation Musketeer is historical fiction about the end of western empires and the rise of the middle east. It’s the story of war, courage, and the folly of over-confidence.

What will victory cost and who will pay the price?
