When the CIA's most valuable spy, OZ, is compromised, the Agency realizes it does not have the capability to bring him to safety. If he cannot evade the dreaded East German security service, the result will be chaos and a cascade of failures throughout the Agency's worldwide operations. Master Sergeant Kim Becker lived through the hell of Vietnam as a member of the elite Studies and Operations Group. When he lost one of his best men in a pointless operation, he began to question his mission. Now, he is serving with an even more secretive Army Special Forces unit based in Berlin on the front line of the Cold War. The CIA turns to Becker's team of unconventional warfare specialists to pull their bacon out of the fire. Becker and his men must devise a plan to get him out by whatever means possible. It's a race against time to prepare and execute the plan while, alone in East Berlin, OZ must avoid his nemesis and play for time inside the hostile secret service headquarters he has betrayed. One question remains -- is the man worth the risk?"--Provided by publisher. 610 10 $a United States. $b Central Intelligence Agency $x Officials and employees $v Fiction. 610 10 $a Germany. $b Bundesbeauftragter fuÌr die Unterlagen des Staatssicherheitsdienstes der Ehemaligen Deutschen Demokratischen Republik $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Intelligence officers $z United States $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Special forces (Military science) $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Cold War $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Nineteen seventies $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Germany (East) $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Spy fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Thrillers (Fiction) $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Action and adventure fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Historical fiction. $2 lcgft 830 0 $a Snake eater chronicles ; $v 1. 941 $a 5 952 $l FXPH314 $d 20220909063104.0 952 $l DBPE173 $d 20210330011231.0 952 $l VBPC034 $d 20210212151415.0 952 $l KSPG296 $d 20210130010839.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20201218010034.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=AB48DC8A40FE11EBBF7EE89344ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
