It’s the middle of the Vietnam
War. Meanwhile, an armored truck with three million in cash is
traveling through Oregon. And two combat chopper pilots plan
their return to the states to hijack it.
Pete Placker, a hell-raising
Fresno State football player who dropped out to become one of
the best helicopter pilots in ‘Nam and Cecil Clanner, a
stockbroker who got drafted, team up for what they think is
their payday.
They commandeer a CH-54
heavy-lift helicopter for what seems a simple heist. But when
the hijacking turns into a bloody shoot-out, they find
themselves in unknown territory. Now they have to contend with
the Oregon wilderness, two unexpected hostages, one infected eye
and their own darker sides.
"Great read with authentic
combat sequences. The hijacking is shades of D. B. Cooper."
Robin E. Scott, Major General, U.S. Air Force (Ret)
"A real page-turner. It'll make one helluva movie!"
Ruben A. Cubero, Brigadier
General, U.S. Air Force (Ret) - former Dean, USAF Academy
