Immediate Action

Into the Jungle’s Heart

Former SAS operative Nick Stone thought he’d retired from the shadows of covert warfare—until a top-secret intelligence officer, codenamed Arcturus, disappears deep in the Belizean rainforest. Tasked with locating her before hostile mercenaries can auction her to the highest bidder, Stone parachutes into a world ruled by machetes and mistrust. Armed with nothing but a cryptic dossier, his military instincts, and the whisper of a local informant, he must navigate poisonous swamps, tangled undergrowth, and the ever-looming threat of discovery.

Allies in the Crosshairs

What begins as a simple extraction quickly unravels into a web of deceit. Stone discovers that rogue elements within his own command—led by Major Riley, a once-trusted comrade—have orchestrated Arcturus’s kidnapping to cover a conspiracy reaching London’s inner sanctum. Every radio transmission could be tapped, every safe house compromised. With only Lani, a fearless jungle tracker whose loyalties shift like the river’s current, Stone races against time, deciphering coded messages and dodging ambushes set by mercenary King Coburn’s equally lethal army.

The Last Stand at Sunset

As the sun dips below the canopy, the mission’s stakes escalate. In a breath-stopping finale by the roaring Sibun River, Stone stages a guerrilla assault that hinges on precise timing and his razor-sharp combat training. Explosions shatter the humid air, while helicopters churn overhead and the distant howl of gunfire becomes the night’s grim soundtrack. In the crucible of battle, Stone must decide whether to trust Lani with the truth—and whether redemption is worth the price of survival.
