The SPECIALISTS are five ex-soldiers, all trained in jungle warfare, each with a deadly specialty. As civilians they lead inconspicuous lives, until the colonel sends for them. Then their job is to find and eliminate the worst kind of criminal, those who hurt the innocent, those the law cannot touch. Sometimes it's easy. This time, however, they're going up against a man who has his own team of specialists.
