This book takes place in Africa.  The beginning of the book it takes place in Congo River most of the rest of the book take place in Namibia in a place called  the Skeleton coast. The Skeleton coast is on the southwest side of Africa a place where many ships were ship wrecked. There is one chapter that takes place in Switzerland where a scientist Geoffrey Merrick is kidnapped from. He was taken to an old German jail base in the Kalahari desert called the Devil Oasis. The story describes the heat and discomfort that people come across in Africa. There are scenes that take place on oil rigs off the coast of Namibia. It is brutal and rough. The fact that it all takes place in Africa makes it exciting and different there is a lot of unknown in africa. The scenes that take place in the ocean make you realize how unpredictable it is. it all makes the book more exciting.

I think this book is very interesting. This book is action filled.It is all very detailed. In the very beginning there is some fighting. The fighting is in the Congo river where the Congolese army of Revolution (CRA)and Caption Cabrillo crew have a gun fight. Lincoln's Crew is secretly funded by the CIA, FBI and the US military. They are a group of ex us special Ops who are sent to get rid of the CRA. They are selling the CRA weapons which can be tracked so they can find them and eliminate them. I would recommend this book to people who like action filled books. It is a very exciting book. This book is very similar to the movie Traitor because people seem to be working for the"bad" guys but they are really working for the "good' Guys. I really enjoyed this book.
