520 _aBased on the new feature film starring Paul Gross, Rossif Sutherland and Allan Hawco Reminiscent of American Sniper and the Academy Award-winning The Hurt Locker, Hyena Road plunges deep to the heart of the Afghanistan war zone. Three men stand at the intersection of modern warfare - a murky world of fluid morality where all is not as it seems. Thrown together are Pete, a veteran ISAF intelligence officer, Ryan, a Canadian sniper, and The Ghost, a legendary mujahedeen warrior who has mysterious reappeared. Three different men, three different worlds, three different wars. Driving the high-stakes political and military gamesmanship between them is the danger-filled construction of Hyena Road, an 18-kilometre stretch of concrete through Panjwaii that international military leaders call "a dagger in the heart of the Taliban." Hyena Road is an action-packed story of on-the-ground combat, impossible choices and the personal costs of war.
