Sniper

As far as Special Forces Captain Mack Gerber is concerned, his latest order is just another big screwup. He has no intel on his team or the target- just a rush, ultrasecret, cross-border operation with a very narrow launch window. To make the whole thing really stink: the monsoons have turned the jungle into a mud bath. Screwup or not, the situation is crucial: assassinate key Red Chinese officers meeting in Laos to commit PLA troop protection of the Ho Chi Minh Trail. Gerber's hit man is a nineteen-year-old sniper, a soldier with twenty confirmed kills in two months of service, but whose troubled conscience has Gerber worried. Still, the captain knows that one good shot could alter the course of the war. Charlie knows it, too. And waiting for Gerber's team is the best sniper in the People's Army. May the best shot win.
