The government of President Philip Dent expels all known rebel families. Concerted and lethal military action is used to move on entrenched rebel communities.

The National Security Directorate is tasked with tracking down the location of these enclaves. A cyber war division is set up under the leadership of Adam Champion. Cain Flint must hide from both National Security Director Leopold and his arch enemies the Doras sisters who are all expert snipers. The Feelgood family must also leave the harbor city but for other reasons. Hera, Mossy and Hannah must board up up their luxury harbor side home. It is a time of refugees and exiles.

Behind enemy lines on the island of Saipan-where firing a gun could mean instant discovery and death-the 40 Thieves killed in silence during the grueling battle for Saipan, the D-Day of the Pacific. Now Joseph Tachovsky-whose father Frank was the commanding officer of the 40 Thieves, also called Tachovsky's Terrors-joins with award-winning author Cynthia Kraack to transport listeners back to the brutal Battle of Saipan. Built on hours of personal interviews with WWII veterans, their personal papers, letters, and documentation from the National Archives, 40 Thieves on Saipan is an astonishing portrayal of elite World War II combat. It's also a rare glimpse into the lives of World War II Marines. The poorest equipped branch of the services at that time, Marines were notorious thieves. To improve their odds for victory against the Japanese, they found it necessary to improve their supply chains through «Marine Methods» -stealing. Being the elite of the Sixth Regiment, the Scout-Sniper Platoon excelled at the craft-earning them the nickname of the «40 Thieves» from their envious peers. Upon returning from a 1943 trip to the Pacific theater, Eleanor Roosevelt observed, «The Marines I have met around the world have the cleanest bodies, the filthiest minds, the highest morale and the lowest morals of any group of animals I have ever seen. Thank God for the United States Marines.»

This is the third book in the SNIPER saga! It is now over six years since the civil war had started in Australia. Many people had died including the young and innocent. Freya Hill and Doctor Roman Ruffe were now dead and buried. Also not so young but still innocent bystanders have died in many atrocities during this civil war. Mary Feelgood was killed along with many other in a train bombing. One of Australia's greatest ever sporting heroes was shot dead for his defiance of state terrorism. But still the government side was slowly winning the battles that mattered. After six years of military actions against rebel forces the government of President Dent now controlled all the major towns and cities of Australia. Only the vastness of the Australian bush land had saved the remaining rebel forces from total annihilation. The rebel forces could really only provide small pockets of effective resistance. Protected in certain country areas by a local population that was permanently anti government these pockets of rebel fighters were protected by their snipers. But they were up against the latest advanced military weaponry. President Dent had done a deal with one of the world's superpowers. By giving this superpower unfettered use of Australia's ports and bases on the mainland, Dent got the use of advanced drone aircraft and top cyber intelligence. As long as he lived the rebel alliance was going to lose this civil war. Already three commando snipers were beginning to take out top rebel commanders almost at will. The rebels had no other choice they had to kill President Dent if they wanted to survive in their own country.
