Welcome to hell, Shelton! Vietnam veteran Wayne Shelton has never been interested in leading a normal civilian life. As a man for delicate missions, he typically puts his tactical skills to profitable use for financially potent clients. However, when Shelton is confronted with his past in Vietnam in the form of a son he never knew existed, he must work on his own account. This shocking revelation takes him to Asia, where he faces a deadly fight for survival. Upon his return, Shelton finds himself in the midst of a brutal civil war in Africa during a rescue mission. Personal motives lead to a difficult decision here. Belgian bestselling author Jean Van Hamme and his compatriot Christian Denayer have created a masterpiece of modern literature with Wayne Shelton.
