Dead Men: Episode 8 — C.L. Walker

Held captive in Vincent Bride's complex, West and Joshua face the mind games and torture of their sadistic enemy. Bride wants his army of supersoldiers and he wants to break West. He thinks he's got all the ingredients for his scheme to succeed, but West was captured on purpose. Her goal is crazy, and it relies on Joshua doing something he wasn't built to do: plan, and think for himself. As Old Father's army attacks outside, West and Joshua both need to survive, and hope their plan is audacious enough that Bride won't see it coming. *** The Dead Men are a company of corporate soldiers on the run for the crime of disobeying orders and breaking their contracts. Lying low in a small African nation still recovering from its last civil war, they put their unique skills and moral apathy to good use. Warlords, the government, rebels, even foreign corporations eager to exploit the tumultuous nation, the Dead Men will work for anyone, for the right price.
