All eyes watched the First World War raged on, but in the background, there were disturbing rumours of a humanitarian crisis in the midst of the Ottoman Empire. Secret Service agent Aaron Hassan thinks he can chalk it up to a day’s work, but the barrel of a Gewehr 98 and the woman behind it soon change his mind! In a frantic escape across Aleppo, Aaron tries to get Suzanna, Karine and the intelligence he carries to Musa Dagh, but he doesn’t recon on assassin, Omar Konevi! With a story by new writer R Tate and art from Commando veteran Manuel Benet!

Classic Commando alert with Gordon C Livingstone interior art and a Ken Barr cover! On the ground or in the air, Powell’s heroes were a pair of fighting fools.
