Texas Storm by Don Pendleton

The provided text consists of excerpts from a novel titled "The Executioner 18: Texas Storm" by Don Pendleton, published by CORGI Books. These sections detail a high-stakes campaign waged by the protagonist, Mack Bolan, known as the Executioner, against the Mafia's attempt to execute a massive criminal enterprise called the "Texas Plan" or "Flag Seven", focused on exploiting the state's resources, particularly oil, and establishing political control. The narrative follows Bolan as he conducts a series of guerrilla warfare strikes, including raiding a Mafia hard site to rescue an heiress named Judith Klingman, eliminating key corrupt officials and mob bosses involved in the conspiracy, and gathering intelligence from a mob leader's safe. Aiding Bolan is his pilot, Jack Grimaldi, while federal agent Harold Brognola expresses concern over Bolan's illegal crusade, even as Bolan attempts to dismantle the powerful coalition of organized crime and respected citizens before it can fully seize control of Texas.
