That was their first mistake, because uncle was rich and Hennessey was rather a good colonel. But they also murdered Hennessey's wife, Linda, and their three small children, and that was their worst mistake for she was the only restraint Hennessey had ever accepted. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e From the pile of rubble and the pillar of fire that mark the last resting place of Linda Hennessey and her children arises a new warrior--Carrera, scourge of the Salafis. He will forge an army of ruthless fanatics from the decrepit remains of failed state's military. He will wage war across half a world. He will find those who killed his family. He will destroy them, and those who support them, utterly, completely, without restraint or remorse. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Only when he is finished will there be peace: the peace of an empty wind as it blows across a desert strewn with the bones of Carrera's enemies.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Baen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/30\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781416555926\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 1024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.92lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 6.78h x 4.12w x 1.34d","brand":"Tom Kratman","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45038163001525,"sku":"9781416555926","price":6.79,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_c53fac0f-b2ae-4267-acdd-5fbcd3ab38ac.jpg?v=1737474886","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/a-desert-called-peace-9781416555926","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
