Starfist: Double Jeopardy

Marines, we have just become a low-tech deep recon patrol . . ." Stranded in a hellish alien desert, stripped of their strategic systems, quick reaction force, & supporting arms, & carrying only a day's water ration, Marine Staff Sergeant Charlie Bass & his seven-man team faced a grim future seventy-five light-years from home. The only thing between his Marines & safety was eighty-five miles of uncharted, waterless terrain & two thousand bloodthirsty savages with state-of-the-art weapons in their hands & murder on their minds. But the enemy didn't reckon on the warrior cunning of Marines' Marine Charlie Bass & the courage of the few good men who would follow him anywhere - even to death. . .
