Books like The mullah's storm by Thomas W. Young


A transport plane carrying a high-ranking Taliban prisoner is shot down in a blizzard over Afghanistan's mountainous Hindu Kush. The storm makes rescue impossible and, for the navigator and a female Army interpreter, the battle for survival begins across some of the most forbidding terrain on Earth. They struggle not only against the hazards of nature, but also the Taliban stalking them, villagers with unknown loyalties, and a prisoner who very much wants the three of them to be caught.

 by Ron Lealos

The Company has a special secret operation planned for one of their top agents: the leaders of the Taliban and al-Qaeda terrorist groups are hiding out in Pashtun country, and they must be eliminated. The job falls to a man they have named Frank Morgan--an agent who stood out as a recruit at Quantico and whose skills resemble those of the legendary Vietnam assassin. The other soldiers claim Frank's abilities as a sniper and a tracker border on the supernatural and are more than willing to complete this mission with him. Frank begins his adventure in Afghanistan with another Company-appointed soldier: an indestructible lyrical Irishman with a cutting sense of humor and a bottle of Jameson never far from hand.
