Just a Handful of Men is a 405-page slash A-Team novel by Beano Smart. It had a very limited run and included three cassette audio "soundtrack" companion tapes, an early form of a fanmix: "These are some tracks that I thought kinda went with the action, reflected the emotional responses of the characters or added a touch of extra drama. Think of them in the vogue of Miami Vice except for the piano pieces which Face plays."
This novel has a prequel called Long Range Patrol.
