The Bush War along South Africa's borders is at its height. Spikes is an acronym for Special Bike Squad, a unit for men with certain talents and training who undertake clandestine missions along and across South Africa's borders. Mark Calder, after the break-up of his marriage and loss of his business is desperate to seek new horizons and enlists with Spikes. The story follows Mark through the rigorous selection, and training courses, and his ultimate baptism into combat. His adventures are shared with the uninhibited Pete Baker, Tiekie the Bushman, determined to become a Bike Soldier, Desiree Lyonton-Smythe, who attempts to infiltrate a mans world, Banger Lawson, a seasoned soldier, and lastly, Angelo and Dodger, Both ex-mercenaries. This not a story for the faint hearted or about war as such, but rather about a test of wills and endurance, of physical triumph, and of mans indomitable spirit to persevere and survive in situations that would make comic book heroes look tame by comparison.
