Operation Purple Buffalo

OPERATION PURPLE BUFFALO

A cartel in northern Mexico has created a deadly new threat: a distinctive synthetic opioid known simply as Purple. What begins as a mission to dismantle a powerful trafficking operation quickly becomes something far more dangerous.

Five operators are sent into the Sonoran desert to find the people responsible.

Shauna Church. Teo Cruz. Elena Vance. Marcus Hayes. Kieran Ramos.

Known as the Purple Reapers, they are Team One—a highly capable unit built for missions where failure is not an option.

But almost immediately, the intelligence stops making sense.

Coordinates lead them into carefully prepared traps. Enemy forces seem to know where they will be before they arrive. Communications begin failing. Extraction plans disappear. And evidence recovered from the operation points far beyond a regional cartel.

The Reapers soon discover that Purple is only one piece of a much larger system—one involving international logistics, hidden financial interests, compromised intelligence, and people who appear to know exactly how the team operates.

Then they find something that changes the mission completely.

Someone knew who the Purple Reapers were before they ever entered Mexico.

Now the team has two objectives: finish the operation and determine who sent them into it.

Because the cartel may be the target.

Or it may have been the bait.
