The Price of a Prisoner

When the guerrilla leader Lia Sung falls into the hands of the brutal Communist torturer General Vladimir during the Korean conflict, a commando team led by Harris launches a desperate rescue mission behind enemy lines. As Vladimir displays his prisoner from village to village before her scheduled execution, Harris and his men must navigate a deadly gauntlet of traps, ambushes, and overwhelming odds—all while their own capture seems inevitable. "The Price of a Prisoner" is a tense war story by Dirk Fowler about the cost of saving a symbol of resistance, and whether one soldier's determination can turn the tide.
