Mack Bolan’s combat senses cried out
Killing his flashlight, he hovered in the darkness for a moment and stared at the bend in the tunnel twenty feet ahead of him. Seconds later, he saw white beams of light playing over the surface and heard the roar of air bubbles expelling from regulators coming out of time with his own breathing.
His opponents had to know he was lying in wait for them. If he could hear them, it stood to reason that the reverse was also true.
Fisting his knife, he waited until the men rounded the corner, one after the other. Each was armed with a speargun and wore a light affixed to his forehead. Bolan surged forward, slicing in a downward arc and skimming along the tunnel’s bottom. As he descended, a pair of spears fired overhead, cutting through the space he occupied moments before.
Bolan didn’t give the men time to reload.

Death Gamble
Don Pendleton
I cannot be intimidated from doing that which my judgment and conscience tell me is right by any earthly power.
—Andrew Jackson 1767-1845
I will show the true meaning of justice and terror to those who would hurt or kill innocents.
—Mack Bolan
To Wall Street Journal reporter Daniel Pearl (1963–2002) who died at the hands of cowards while upholding the people’s right to know. He was working for us all.
