A blisteringly fast-paced military novel, Operation Cavolo by E.S. Benton will satisfy any reader of action fiction, unloading like a film while never skimping on intense detail. After months of imprisonment and torture, Captain Kale knows that his one and only mission now is revenge, with poison as his weapon of choice, and if Alpha team doesn’t rise to his challenge and find the antidote, many innocent people will die. Benton excels at pacing and dialogue, conveying the action through precise details of character behavior and movement that never weigh down the narrative. Fluidly written and gripping from the start, this second installment of The Silent Codename series manages to be a fun page-turner, even with the dark events and daunting stakes.
