The Last Operation by Patrick Astre (ISFDB), himself a former US Army Infantry Sergeant, is the 1st in his Remnants of War series of sfnal contemporary action adventure thrillers starring ex-military personnel tracking down mysterious war-related sci-fi MacGuffins (apparently future installments have more mystical/supernatural ones), this one involving a US Special Forces veteran tracking down a genetically enhanced soldier gone rogue, free courtesy of publisher ePublishing Works! (exclamation mark theirs), who are e-printing it from its 2004 Echelon Press paperback.

Currently free @ Kobo & iTunes & Google Play (all available to Canadians).

Description
A US Special Forces operator and veteran of the Iraq and Afghanistan wars, Richard Daniels is weary of serving government officials.

Ensconced deep in the Florida Everglades, Daniels flies out of his own base of operations, rescuing wealthy refugees from dangerous situations then using the funds to extract unfortunates facing the same dangers.

When two shadowy government-types attempt to hire Daniels and his team, Daniels flatly refuses. Then his seaplane is impounded, a federal warrant is issued for his arrest, and Deeno, an honorary team member with Downs Syndrome, is detained on federal charges.

Daniels' mind is changed. His new mission: In exchange for Deeno's freedom, hunt down and return "Bio", a genetically enhanced soldier gone rogue. Simple enough; Bio is already a proven killer.

But when Daniels finds the diary of the last man Bio killed... plans change.
