Back cover text: NO TERMS Horrifying film footage of the hanging, lifeless body of a U. S. Marine colonel executed by Middle East terrorists stuns the nation - and propels Mack Bolan into action. The President want aboveboard negotiations only and issues a direct hands-off order to Bolan. But with more hostages marked for death, the Executioners not waiting for orders. No sanction. No backup. No weapons. And with no Intel to go on and little time to find any, Bolan stalks the Middle East in a countdown to terror.
