A small, oil-rich Arab nation is about to lose its status as a British protectorate. A superior enemy force lurks in the wings, waiting to invade, led by Soviet tanks. How many men from War, Inc. (a company with an ultra-scientific approach to warfare) does it take to stop an army of tanks? Six - debonair Peter Carthage and five specialists, accompanied by a plucky young British woman determined to rescue a kidnapped brother.
In the late 1960s, the Cold War threatened the survival of mankind. The map of the world was being recolored. And so, to help keep the uneasy peace a new group of mercenaries was born, known as Weapons Analysis and Research, Incorporated.
WAR, Inc., did not supply fighting troops. It did supply training, equipment, systems, advice and technical knowhow for using the equipment of modern warfare. Its men were carefully-selected experts at their jobs, men such as Peter Carthage, formally a major in the Intelligence branch of the United States Army.
