About this audiobook

The Chinese city of Shunkien is under siege by the Japanese. In the middle sits the American consulate, packed with refugees, facing starvation and cholera. Marine Gunnery Sergeant James Mitchell is their only hope. But he'll have to negotiate 200 miles of bullets, bombs and one bombshell dancer to get there. And then his greatest enemy of all: alcohol. If he gives in to temptation, it's America that will pay the price. Gunshots, dive bombers, and seductive fan dancers are all here, as the audio version of Orders Is Orders takes you to the heart of war.
