He felt something in his belly twist up like cold fingers curling into a fist. This is it, he'd thought. This is when it all goes bad... Private "security" firm Flyboy, Inc., landed on the alien planet of Iaxo with a mission: In one year, they must quash an insurrection; exploit the ancient enmities of an indigenous, tribal society; and kill the hell out of one group of natives to facilitate negotiations with the surviving group--all over 110 million acres of mixed terrain. At first, the double-hush, back-burner project seemed to be going well. With all the advantages they had going for them--a ten-century technological lead on the locals, the logistical support of a shadowy and powerful private military company, and aid from similar outfits already on the ground--a quick combat victory seemed reasonable. An easy-in, easy-out mission that would make them very, very rich. But the ancient tribal natives of Iaxo refuse to roll over and give up their planet. What was once a strategic coup has become a quagmire of cost over-runs and blown deadlines, leaving the pilots of Flyboy, Inc., on an embattled distant planet, waiting for support and a ride home that may never come.... The debut novel from acclaimed, James Beard Award-winning food critic Jason Sheehan, A Private Little War is the dark tale of a deadly war being waged in secrecy--and the struggle to stay sane in a world that makes no sense.
