    Life is short and justice a rare commodity in the harsh wastelands of Afghanistan. Navy SEAL Lieutenant Rafe Stoner is about to encounter this cruel truth the hard way. An operation goes tragically wrong, and a Taliban sniper team ambushes a UNHCR ambulance. One of the dead is the woman with whom he intended to start a new life. Stoner turns his back on civilization, and begins a new career as a gun-for-hire in the bitter land ruled by the bomb and the bullet. With a growing reputation as a man who gets results, the former SEAL agrees to locate the murderer of a young boy's father. This time, he is up against overwhelming odds, so he recruits a former friend, Greg Blum, as an extra gun. Blum, the son of a Russian who fought in Afghanistan during the Russian invasion, is a talented shooter. He is also the man Stoner once threatened to kill. The operation becomes a desperate fight for survival. Battling drug-traffickers, murderers and warlords, Stoner has to employ all of his SEAL skills just to stay alive. The two men fight their way through ambush and the bitter snows of winter to reach their target. Standing in their way is a vicious warlord, Massoud, who counts among his ranks a psychopathic American sniper. The battle becomes a bloody and ferocious duel to the death. This is a spectacular story of a fight for justice in a ruined and war-torn land. Black-Ops: Heroes of Afghanistan is by the best-selling author of many Spec Ops war stories.

    TV-Reporterin Kim Barker (Tina Fey) sucht nach einer neuen Herausforderung in ihrem Leben: Thunfischsalat im Großraumbüro und Beziehungsweichei an ihrer Seite können doch nicht alles gewesen sein. Als der Kabelsender, für den sie arbeitet, unter den unverheirateten, kinderlosen Mitarbeitern kamerataugliches "Kanonenfutter" für die Berichterstattung von der afghanischen Reporter-Front sucht, meldet sie sich kurzerhand freiwillig. Völlig überfordert von sich und Kabul, erlebt die Journalistin, dass es irgendwann keinen Unterschied mehr macht, ob man den Presseausweis um den Hals oder auf der Kevlar-Weste trägt. Fest entschlossen, die beste Story zu finden, lässt sich Kim auf die neuen Regeln ein. Erstens: Was Colonel Hollanek (Billy Bob Thornton) befiehlt, sollte maximal eine grobe Richtlinie für beschissene Situationen sein. Zweitens: Wenn der mächtige - und streng muslimische - Politiker Ali Massoud Sadiq (Alfred Molina) einem schon unter den Rock kriecht, kann man auch guten Gewissens seine beachtlichen Kontakte nutzen. Drittens: Bevor man den neuseeländischen Security-Mann zum "Strammstehen" an die blonde Korrespondenten-Granate Tanya Vanderpoel (Margot Robbie) abgibt, sollte man seine eigenen Grundbedürfnisse befriedigen - außer man favorisiert schottisches Fotografen-Equipment (Martin Freeman). Neben all diesen Herausforderungen, die natürlich gemeistert werden wollen, wird Kim aber nach und nach auch klar, welche deutlich existenzielleren Schwierigkeiten die Menschen in Afghanistan tagtäglich zu bewältigen haben. Dagegen erscheinen die Probleme ihres New Yorker Alltags, den sie weit hinter sich gelassen hat, vollkommen unbedeutend.

    “Logan looked in the kitchen for Dustin or Max, while Keith walked deeper into the main room. Looking down, Keith noticed a small blood stain on the floor. ‘What the hell?’ Logan rushed over to his side and the two immediately noticed a trail of blood, which seemed to get bigger as it reached the bedroom. Logan yelled out again, ‘Max?’ Keith and Logan rushed toward the bedroom where they found a bloody handprint on the wall and doorway. Looking into the bedroom, Logan gasped as Keith cried out, ‘Oh, my God!’” (Boystown Season Eight) The horrific discovery in the apartment of Max Taylor and Dustin Alexander leaves a life hanging in the balance and begins a mystery that involves many of Boystown’s prominent residents. And with Marco Ciancio’s killer still on the loose, no one in Boystown is safe. Members of the Ciancio and Mancini families continue to live in fear as the murderer manages to stay one step ahead of Commander Michael Martinez and Detective Jack Kramer. Meanwhile, Franco Armani’s twisted plan for revenge against Patrick Provenzano reaches a fatal finale, Justin and Emmett Mancini rush their brother Derek to the hospital, Gino Ciancio responds to Victor DelVecchio’s marriage proposal, and a snowstorm strands Cole Mancini and Jensen Stone in Boston where they make a decision that will impact the lives of those they love. Later, when the suave Massoud Ahmed arrives in Chicago seeking investors in the River Pointe project, the Ciancios and Mancinis quickly become ensnared in a devious scheme masquerading as a business opportunity. In the process, some relationships are ruined while others are revisited, Jesse Morgan turns on those who love him most, and Marco’s murderer strikes again…and again. It all leads up to a wedding the likes of which Chicago has never seen and Boystown listeners will never see coming. There’s no place like Boystown! ungekürzt. Language: English.
