Covert Ops

A man has vanished in the Omani desert—and the people holding the strings will kill anyone who tries to bring him home.
Covert Ops: The Golden Camel — Book 3 throws Steve Barker and his team into a dangerous international military thriller where organised crime, human exploitation and a covert rescue mission collide.
Joby, an Indian oil-and-gas worker from Kerala, disappears after being transferred to the remote island of Mano, off the coast of Oman. His employers, the Golden Camel, appear to be an employment agency. In reality, the organisation is a ruthless criminal syndicate that traps desperate workers in crushing debt, confiscates most of their wages and uses violence against anyone who refuses to comply—or their families.

For Steve, Simon, George and Derek, the objective sounds clear: find Joby and bring him back alive.
Nothing about Mano is clear.
Steve travels ahead to Muscat, using old contacts, counter-surveillance and street-level intelligence to uncover the Golden Camel's network. Lucy joins the operation as the team moves from reconnaissance in Muscat to covert infiltration across the desert. Weapons are sourced, routes studied, observation points established and extraction plans built around one unforgiving fact: on Mano, there is nowhere to hide.
Then the intelligence changes everything.
The team discovers Joby's disappearance is only part of the operation—and their mission may have been compromised before they ever left Britain. Someone wants Steve and his team in the desert, isolated and far from help.
Now a covert rescue operation becomes a fight for survival.
With Joby located at a remote workover hoist, Steve must coordinate snipers, surveillance, vehicle movement and an armed extraction before the Golden Camel closes the trap. When gunfire erupts across the desert, every contingency is tested.
Packed with British military action, tactical planning, sniper suspense, covert operations, veteran characters, desert warfare and dark barrack-room humour, The Golden Camel is a fast-paced military thriller where the mission is simple:
Find the missing man. Break the organisation controlling him. Get everyone home alive.
