A conspiracy of terror puts Mack Bolan on the front line, tracking a cadre of killers carefully placed across the globe. Five years earlier in Monaco, a "free vacation" for ex-cops ended in a bloody massacre. But the dead have returned to life as the Huntsman, surfacing only to fulfill another death contract. The enemy remains one step ahead of the Stony Man warriors. The Executioner, Able Team and Phoenix Force launch a worldwide hunt for the archetype of evil who threatens global freedom.

The mystery of the Huntsman continues, with the Stony Man teams blowing away badguys and playing detective in their own seperate areas of the world. Able Team's action in the States was my favorite, and overall a great middle book of this trilogy even though a different writer was at the helm. This book has a lot of humor in it, which I enjoyed and give this book a good rating because of that as much as anything else. Bolan didn't have a lot of screen time on this book, but as a Stony Man adventure, all the teams were written very well.

Loved it. The plot is extremely good being one of the best of the series. Jerry VanCook as usual writes fantastic action sequences and brings the tension up towards the end of the book with some unravelling and explanation of the plot. Very much looking forward to reading the final book of the trilogy after this one and it is recommended reading. my two bobs worth........

First the good points the action is as always first rate. The murders in Monte Carlo are finally addressed. The Huntsman existence and reasons are fleshed out. Now for the not so good parts, (a) Bolan and Phoenix Force are attacked at the begining of the book and we don't know how the bad guys knew where they were/ This problem hapens several times in this book and the next one. (b) Thone is not mentioned but for a very small time in the whole book (part of what I think makes a Bolan book good is that the authors let us in on what the Bad guy is up to/thinking. Because of then above I rate it at a 5 star book.

I REALLY ENJOYED THIS TRILOGY. ALEXANDER DE MORNAY WAS ONE OF THE BETTER BOLAN VILLANS TO COME AROUND IN A LONG TIME. HE'S MORE MENACING AND ENIGMATIC THEN A LOT OF BOLAN BAD GUYS, A TRUE BOLAN ADVERSARY.

I pretty good book, though it mostly seemed to be just a filler for the trilogy plot. Good action, and we see the plot finally begin to make sense here, which takes away some of the suspense.
