Description
Book Two of the Mateus de Silva Adventures
The prison is sealed. The vault is wired. But history always collects.
On the scorched battlefields of 1980s Angola, Colonel Juan Mateus de Silva survives a brutal ambush that costs him everything. His men. His command. His closest friend. When his general abandons them to die, de Silva answers in blood. Marked for execution, he flees across the border into Namibia. He is not running from justice. He is hunting it.
With a South African deserter at his side, he disappears into the shadows of Cape Town. But betrayal follows.
Decades later in California, his grandson uncovers an impossible truth. The colonel is still alive, buried deep inside an illegal gold mine in South Africa. Getting him out will take a crew, a flawless plan, and absolute precision under fire. The trail leads back to Cape Town, where a fortified casino holds the key to finishing what was started years ago.
The Colonel's Revenge is a high-stakes thriller of war, betrayal, and a heist built on debts that refuse to die.
Advance Praise
James Rollins
#1 New York Times Bestselling Author of Trust No One
"Jeffrey K. Schmoll's The Colonel's Revenge reminded me of vintage Clive Cussler: vibrant history, scintillating action, and a team determined to right a wrong going back decades. It's also a riveting heist story, a rescue mission, a tale of lost treasures, and a family saga... I look forward to seeing what trouble these characters get into next!"
David Crow
Spur Award Winner and Bestselling Author of A Pale Faced Lie
"Jeff Schmoll has written another great adventure story that will have your heart in your throat. This is a brilliant sequel to Tundavala Gap, which I called one of the best stories I've read in ages."
Thomas Anderson
Editor in Chief, Literary Titan
"The Colonel's Revenge is a rugged and fast-moving thriller. Author Jeffrey K. Schmoll writes action with a hard, sunburned physicality... Readers who enjoy action-adventure novels, historical fiction, revenge thrillers, and heist novels will find plenty to savor here."
Charlotte Armstrong
The Pen Not the Sword Book Blog
"I absolutely loved The Treasure of Tundavala Gap, so I knew I was in for a fantastic read... What I wasn't prepared for was just how completely this story would grip me from the very first page — and was even better than Tundavala Gap. A thrilling, action-packed, and incredibly well-written adventure."
Cat

"Oh wow, what an exciting adventure thriller and sequel to The Treasure of Tundavala Gap... The tale is exciting and fast paced throughout... a brilliant ending with lots of exciting moments and twists. I can't wait to read the next book!"
