Resumen del Editor

Amelia Gittens, a Black female, has the distinct honor of being the first female to be admitted to the US Army's elite group of snipers, fighting in Afghanistan. It doesn't come without its price, though. She comes back as so many veterans do - with post-traumatic stress syndrome, complete with major flashbacks.

Working as a New York City police officer, she is involved with a suspect shooting. Unfortunately for her, it is the cousin of a major international drug dealer who seeks revenge on her, her partner, as well as the departmental psychiatrist.

Amelia responds the only way she knows how: falling back upon her military training to keep her ward safe while the situation is being resolved. The whole while, she is battling her own inner demons, fighting with herself to keep them at bay, nearly tearing herself apart.

From an old War Horse

As a female Desert Storm, Military Police veteran with a combat badge and PTSD, I seriously doubted the authenticity of a book about female Army vets. Most folks have no clue that since the end of the Cold War there has been no "rear" in any combat action. Today's weapons have done away with a safe zone for non combatants. Yea, no matter your race, rank or gender if you are serving your country in uniform, you are a target, in or out of country.
That being said, it was a bit of a treat to read about an old soldier returning to her unit one more time and being treated so well. It was also kind cool to see an adult civilians' perspective on military training. Basically, what I am saying is that this book was outstanding, only one recommendation, kinda cut back on the hooahhs, we never used them so frequently. The were like the gold stars passed out in school for doing something outstanding.
