Publisher's Summary

It’s 1982 and one of the most daring raids of the Falklands war is about to be sprung on the Argentine mainland; the aim is to destroy the last Exocet missile and kill the pilots that might launch it; but everyone knows it’s a one-way, suicide job…

Operation Mikado was an actual raid that almost went ahead.

‘The Argentine Job’ is the fictional ‘what if’ that details a mission and potential escape by surviving British forces across forty miles of barren Patagonian winter wasteland at its worst, chased by an army out for their blood. It is a journey examined from the perspectives of both British and Argentine forces in their struggle to survive and decide, just who exactly owns those islands?
