The dreaded Black Hand has let out a $100,000 contract on Bolan's life,
and every trigger-happy gunman in the country is trying to collect. At the
same time, local, state, and federal police forces have banded together in
the greatest manhunt in history to stop Bolan.
Fired with a holy vengeance, Bolan recruits nine buddies - all heroes
of the Vietnam war, all specialists in the more sophisticated aspects of
meting out death.

Death Squad

But wherefore them alone?
Wherefore with thee Came
not all hell broke loose?
John Milton, Paradise Lost

We'll hit the Mafia so fast, so
often, and from so many directions
they'll think hell fell on them. We
steal, we kill, we terrorize, and we
take every Goddamned thing they
have. Then we'll see how powerful
and well organized they are.
Mack Bolan, THE EXECUTIONER

Prologue

Of all the grim specialties developed by U.S. fighting men in Vietnam,
Mack Bolan had fallen heir to the most ruthless and cold-blooded job of all.
Sergeant Bolan was a sharpshooter, a nerveless perfectionist, and a man who
could certainly command himself. He quickly became the most renowned sniper
of the combat zones. His many kills and daring methodology had earned for
him the unofficial title of The Executioner. And then Mack Bolan had been
summoned home on an emergency furlough to bury his father, his mother, and
his teenage sister-victims of violent death. Bolan learned that the
international crime syndicate known as the Mafia had indirectly figured into
the tragedies.
