Book Reviews of The Feather Men

Book Review: Amazing,so secret, even the author doesn't know how it ends
Summary: 4 Stars

Someone is secretly murdering SAS veterans. The killings are carefully arranged to look like accidents. The Feather Men, a secret organization of SAS vets, suspects that something is up. The trail leads to a band of contract killers, who are under hire from an Arabian sheikh exacting traditional tribal vengeance against the _ingleezi_. Oh, and the author himself narrowly escapes being hit by the hired killers, shortly before the Feather Men contact him to write this account of these events. They do not tell him what happened to the surviving killer once he was caught, so the book has several loose strings. A genuinely disturbing tale of how terrorism strikes even the bravest and savviest of spec warriors.
