World War II. On the island of Mindanao, the Philippines, a man calling himself "General" Fertig has set himself up as a guerrilla leader to harass the Japanese. Army records show that the only officer named Fertig in the Philippines is a reserve lieutenant colonel of the Corps of Engineers, reported MIA on Luzon.

Still, the reports filtering out are interesting, and it's Marine lieutenant Ken McCoy's mission to sneak behind the lines and find out if he's for real. With him is a motley group put together as a compromise between the warring factions of Douglas MacArthur and the OSS chief Bill Donovan.

Together, these men will steal into the heart of enemy territory and there, amid firefights and jungle camps, encounter more than they had bargained for. Before they're done, each will undergo a test of his own personal mettle - with results that will surprise even the most hardened of them.

Great story but part way into it the sound quality became questionable. This happened on and off for the rest of the novel.

Echoing, sounds like he is in a can.

I've been thoroughly enjoying listening to this series while I do farm chores but this book slapped me upside the head from the start. the sound engineer and or Dick Hill really made a mess of this recording. in my opinion most blame goes to the engineer but Mr Hill's performance was not on par with his previous excellent readings. my advice is if you can read this book on paper then do so. hopefully the remaining books aren't done this way.

Great story - bad audio
