At first, Carney could not get his novel published, but for a chance meeting with film producer Euan Lloyd. Lloyd loved the story, about mercenaries in Africa on a mission to rescue a deposed leader, and purchased the rights to film the novel. Carney in return asked for his novel to be published and Lloyd agreed, as he had already had an offer from an American The Wild Geese when he had first taken the novel to Hollywood. The novel was finally published as The Wild Geese in just before the film's release. Deposed Congolese President Julius Limbani is on a flight to Israelwhen his bodyguard is murdered. When Limbani fails to arrive, Faulkner is left unemployed and returns to South Africa. Faulkner learns that not only is Limbani alive The Wild Geese he is held in Algeria and is to be returned to the Congo for execution. But what Matherson proposes is for Faulkner to raise and lead a The Wild Geese unit to rescue Limbani and bring him to London. With this chance to redeem his tarnished reputation after Limbani was kidnapped under his contracted safety, Faulkner agrees and sets about assembling his team. Three men are top of Faulkner's list, all have served under him in the past and are trusted beyond question. First to be recruited is American Rafer Janders, who at that time is in The Wild Geese from the Mafia. They've put out a contract on Janders' life after he killed a local godfather's nephew after tricking Janders into being a courier of heroin. As Matherson persuades the mafia into lifting the contract, Faulkner finds Janders holed up above a night ckub for homosexuals. Whilst waiting for Matherson to deal with the mafia, Faulkner learns about what has happened to Janders since they last served together 7 years ago. After recruiting two more officers Fynn and Coetzee and The Wild Geese NCOs and enlisted men, the group travels to Mozambique for training. Once Young begins training, he quickly becomes resented by most of the men because of his rigid and harsh methods. While Faulkner remains popular with the men, it is not the same for the RSM, who easily defeats an The Wild Geese by a few disgruntled mercenaries to kill him. Now respected as well as disliked by the men, Young transforms aged old soldiers and young rookies into a formidable fighting force. As Faulkner and Janders procure their transport and weapons, Chandos, Fynn and Coetzee explore the local nightlife of Lourenenco Marques. There Fynn falls in love with a local escort girl, and finds himself once again with a reason not to go on the mission. Fynn eventually recognises that he has a responsibility to his comrades and flies out with the rest of the mercenaries. The plane belonging to Mad Malloy, takes them to their drop zone in the hills surrounding Albertville. The jump goes well except for Fynn, whose chute fails to deploy properly but manages to land safely after using his reserve chute. Faulkner gathers his men, then the group splits in two and each march on their respective objective. As Chandos and Fynn's group approach the local AirportFaulkner's group The Wild Geese to find the army barracks after an unexpected delay. The barracks which hold a garrison of the Congolese The Wild Geese army ANC The Wild Geese well as the imprisoned Limbani, cannot be approached easily as there is no cover for a hundred metres. To take out the three sentries, Coetzee shoots them with crossbow armed with cyanide -tipped bolts. The mercenaries enter the barracks quickly and quietly as most of the garrison is asleep, it is now they split into three further groups. As RSM. Young leads one team to destroy the armouryJanders' group enter the dormitories and wearing gas masks proceeds to kill the sleeping soldiers with cyanide gas. While these two groups get on with their tasks, Faulkner's group burst in on the guard-house under cover of the mercenaries guns. Coetzee relieves one of the Congolese Officers of the keys to the cells located beneath the room and along with a Scottish mercenary McTaggart Coetzee storms the basement, and after The Wild Geese short firefight they free Limbani. With their mission complete, Faulkner's group leaves the barracks for the airport in captured ANC trucks. After being told over the radio that Faulkner had been successful, Chandos' team attacks the main building while Fynn's team take over the control tower. With the airport under the control of the mercenaries they await the arrival of Faulkner's group, but unfortunately the perimeter guards start to come under attack from Ndofa's Simbas. As they hold off the Simbas and await Faulkner, Fynn uses the control tower's radio to talk the waiting transport plane down onto the runway. The plane The Wild Geese just as the Simbas break through the perimeter at the opposite end of the runway to the plane and start shooting at it. At this time Faulkner's group arrives, but the plane's pilot under strict instructions from Mad Malloy refuses to wait for the mercenaries and promptly takes off. Leaving the mercenaries stranded, Faulkner organises a fighting withdrawal taking with them all the fuel, spare arms and ammunition they can pile on the trucks and jeeps. The mercenaries ambush the following Simbas and are still in good order, only losing a few men killed. As they make their way south, heading for Limbani's The Wild Geese tribal land they approach an old rickety wooden road bridge. Only the first few vehicles make it across, as the bridge collapses under the weight of a fuel tanker leaving the last jeep stranded on the northern river bank. As Faulkner's party reached the village of The Wild Geese people and found a sort of sanctuary there, Coetzee's party was ambushed by the Simbas. Whity was killed and McTaggart missing it is later revealed that he had suicidally charged the Simbas with a grenade in each hand after deliberately drawing them away from Coetzee and Limbani, and Coetzee was also killed while trying to save Limbani. Ndofa contacts Faulkner over the The Wild Geese in the local police station, which the mercenaries have taken over and are using as their headquarters. With the risk of Limbani's return starting a civil war Ndofa and Faulkner The Wild Geese to make a deal: Limbani for one million dollars. Janders disagrees and, holding Faulkner at gunpoint, forces a vote amongst the mercenary officers. When the local missionary priest reveals to the mercenaries The Wild Geese there is a Dakota on an airstrip nearby they decide to use it to escape, with Fynn to pilot it all the way to Rhodesia. The taking over of the lone Dakota on the all but deserted airstrip goes well, but as the bulk of the mercenaries retreat towards The Wild Geese plane they are ambushed and killed. Faulkner himself is gravely wounded, unable to carry Faulkner to the plane the RSM decides to stay with him. As the Simbas gather round them, the RSM sets off a grenade killing not only himself and Faulkner but also some The Wild Geese the Simbas. Fynn starts up the Dakota's engines and taxi's onto the runway as Janders and several others provide cover as the mercenaries load aboard the plane. At the last second as the plane begins to start its take off they rush for the plane, under the gunfire from the Simbas. Janders helps one mercenary who has been wounded, but in doing so misses his own chance to climb onto the accelerating aircraft. With the distance between the plane and Janders growing he pleads to be killed and not left to the savage Simbas, which Chandos regretfully does with a burst from his rifle. The Dakota suddenly slows down on the runway and u-turns heading back the way it came, because Fynn is shot in the spine and thus making the killing of Janders unnecessary.

Obi Kaufmann, bearded and in his hiking boots, is sitting across from me. He spritzes the air above us, smiling as the mist slowly floats down. That's the smell of Highway 1 with your windows down. I'm pretty sure my eyes roll into the back of my head. This isn't a headache-inducing faux Christmas tree smell, but something far more organic. Juniper Ridge is doing something different with fragrance. Rather than taking the position that the The Wild Geese is an artist tasked with invoking abstract The Wild Geese about sex, desire, or beauty, the perfumers here are hikers and backpackers who aim to pour the smell of the great outdoors into a bottle. He breaks it down for me: "We go to the mountains, harvest wild plants, and distill natural fragrance from them. Each one is made up of found twigs, leaves, roots, and flowers. Having grown up in the mountains of Northern California, I can attest to their olfactory authenticity. Surprisingly or unsurprisingly, New York City is the brand's biggest market Obi attributes it to what he calls "Outdoor Deficit Disorder"which is why its first pop-up shop will appear here, on Williamsburg's uber-hip Wythe Avenue, this October. The plan is to bring raw ingredients and distill natural fragrances on the street. One of the most unusual elements to the brand is The Wild Geese inconsistency. Because the local conditions and foliage change from season to season, each bottle is embossed with a harvest code. In other words, every batch of The Wild Geese is completely unique.
