"Marjan's Tooth" takes you to the mountains of Afghanistan as a Special Forces soldier on a mission of no return. You've been training hard for months on assignment. The leader of your team is the son of Marjan, a warrior whose father was killed by the Taliban and whose death - as well as the death of the great Ahmad Shah Massoud, the leader of the Northern Alliance - you've come to avenge. Danger is all around you, a beast of prey. To succeed, you must win the hearts and minds of the local tribesmen with whom the Taliban have been courting favor. And you must arrive at your target on March 21st, the first day of the New Year by Afghan custom and tradition.

"Marjan's Tooth" came to me in a fever dream some time ago, as my body soaked in sweat, and I struggled to see the light. I kept hearing a voice from beyond and it consisted only of four words: "Justice must be served."
