“From the clandestine infiltration to the covert extraction Jones is on the mark! Three Threads provides a view into regions of the world where most readers have little insight or understanding. The main characters are as diverse and complex as their settings, yet each must ultimately strive for a common purpose. A mesmerizing read!” “Central Asia to the Caucasus, Jones weaves a tapestry of political, military, and cultural intrigue, while demonstrating his deep knowledge of the area and its peoples. As a veteran of three missions in Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan, I am deeply impressed by Jones’ insights into particular cultural mores and practices of the region. This story is both a page turner and a pol-mil textbook.” “Jones’ captures the tension and drama of an unconventional warfare environment from an operator’s perspective. Presented through three unique characters, he details their diverse backgrounds, personal struggles, and approach to mission planning and execution, while addressing the human conditions that drive them. Three Threads is primer for those who want to understand special operators and their missions.”
