Ten years after a harrowing rescue mission in Iraq, retired SEAL Porter Dawkins has partnered with former PJ and missionary Aiden McCoy in the Central African Republic, rescuing child soldiers from deadly warlords.
When Aiden gets a message from an old comrade in Iraq asking for help in the fight against ISIS, he and his team, including former Apache pilot Ginger Cooper McCoy, take the skills they've honed in Africa into the Battle of Mosul, caring for civilians caught in the crossfire.
Meanwhile, Porter's old friend Ozzy is now an Iraqi general conducting the ground war in Mosul while struggling with his wife and daughter's abductions by ISIS in Syria.
As anti-terror operations across Iraq and Syria intensify, Aiden, Porter, and Ginger will need to decide how deeply to involve themselves in one of the most complex and dangerous urban battlefields in history

"This book is the final chapter of The Modern War Series. The characters are compelling and if you've read the earlier books, you will love seeing how it all turns out. I could not stop. Wonderful. The scene at the end literally brought tears to my eyes."
- Chief Joe Paolilli, firefighter
"In his fourth book in The Modern War Series, Vince ties together a brotherhood of warriors: men, women, and former enemies. Whether inside the cockpit of a frontline fighter or patrolling the dusty streets of a bombed-out village, your mind will race and your heart will pound due to Vince's articulate attention to detail in the prosecution of war against evil. Those Who Face Death is a must read."
