I have just finished reading "The Year of the locust" by Terry Hayes.
The following is taken from the dust jacket of the book, because quite honestly there is so much action I don't know where to start.

If, like Kane, you're a Denied Access Area spy for the CIA. Then boundaries have no meaning. Your function is to go in,do whatever is required, and get out again by whatever means necessary.You know when to run, when to hide - and when to shoot..
But some places don't play by the rules and are too dangerous even for a man of Jane's experience. The badlands are such a place where the borders of Iran, Pakistan and Afghanistan meet.
Kane travels there to infiltrate a man with information vital for the safety of the West-- but instead he meets an adversary who will take the world to the brink of extinction. A frightening, clever, vicious man with blood on his hands and vengeance in his heart.
The Year of the Locust is a voyage to a far off land to see something no one has ever seen before. A mission to prevent the future happening. An encounter with true evil. And, ultimately, a moment when Kane must make the decision to save his own life-threatening or someone elses.
