This is an action adventure book by same author as the Gray Man series. An professional operative that served in the army and then was a hired gun type guy, was injured in Lebanon and lost the bottom part of one of his legs. Unable to continue that type work and no education he is reduced to taking a mall security position that pays nothing and with wife working nights and two very young children the family is struggling. He has an opportunity to get back into the game of professional operative with a very good paying job but doesn't let them know about his prosthetic leg. The job is security for UN negotiators in Mexico with drug lords. Mission seems simple enough but insiders have made this a big setup job. Duff--the main character eventually figures it out & is able to get away with part of his crew. A good action packed read.
I got this book from PBS but it is a rougher shape so I won't be mailing it off, will instead look to donate it out somewhere.
