Code Name Halloween 38 (Overview)

Spymaster extraordinaire, Angelique Dawson and her team are in western Mozambique using every known method in PSYOPS (Psychological Operations or Black Propaganda) and a few others she created to destabilise Zimbabwe. Her objective is to stir up as much trouble as possible between Zimbabwe and China, the country’s only major friend. To do so, she is flying covert missions into Zimbabwe with a specially equipped Aérospatiale Super Frelon helicopter, causing havoc wherever she can. It is a dangerous business, she is wanted in that country and if she is captured or any of her men, they will die a horribly prolonged death. The helicopter she flies looks like the ones flown by the Chinese Air Force, the Changhe Z-8, an exact copy and a common sight in Zimbabwe. She was ambushed in a previous mission, Code Name Mel’s Choice, whilst flying in air supplies for a dissident movement and barely escaped being shot down. That insult is not forgotten, she wants revenge, to send a harsh message back. Consequently, she is deliberately flying towards an ambush site, but she has an ace card, she is going to attack the ambushers with heavy mortars when they expect it least. To do so, she needs to insert an entire Army Special Forces platoon with their heavy mortars and bombs clandestinely, and then extract them to safety again if she survives the ambush. This is an intricate military operation fraught with risk and one she needs help with. Her ground commander and later husband, former Police Special Forces Company Commander, Geoffrey Foxtrot, is commanding and advising as best he can. Yet, she has her own ideas and not listening. If you wish to read about Covert and Special Forces Operations in sub-Saharan Africa, the GMJ Books are the place to start. You will learn about Special Forces techniques and military history not known outside the select few. Code Name Halloween 38 is the twenty-sixth book of the popular GMJ Series.
