As Randall ‘Flame’ O’Donnell starts a new chapter in his private life, he is called upon by a Navy admiral on a very personal mission. A 16-year old American boy has been lured into a warzone in the Middle East, and the team is asked to bring him home safely, even if it’s against his wishes. The mission takes Flame into Syria as the battle against ISIS rages on and the battle to tear down the caliphate is in full swing. But why are the People’s Protection Units, the allies of the American’s against the terrorist nation, enticing children into becoming soldiers? How does Flame find and convince a young man to abandon his crusade and return home to his family in Southern California? And if he can, then the rest of the team must be ready to go in and get them out in possibly the largest push to retake Raqqah.
