Dan “Spider” Shepherd was standing on the flight deck of an RAF Hercules C-130, leaning on the back of the pilot’s seat and anxiously scanning the horizon ahead of them in the first faint light of dawn. Spider Shepherd and his patrol mates are heading back to Cyprus when an urgent situation arises, and they are pressed into action. A sensitive operation planned by HQ, they are sent into the Arabian desert to take on a group of dangerous terrorists.
