Nine Line

De: Zachary J. Kitchen

Narrado por: Kelli White

A nine-line is the standard radio format to evacuate casualties from the battlefield. It is a call for help.

When Nick Patterson signed up for the Navy reserves, he just wanted some money for medical school. He never imagined he’d someday find himself fighting for life and limb in the sands of Iraq. Frustrated by a military bureaucracy he cannot begin to understand and an increasingly pointless war, he doubts why he is there and what he is doing.

When the plucky and idealistic MEDIVAC pilot Samantha Brown crashes into his life, he sees another side to the war. As their friendship grows into something more serious, Nick is faced with a multitude of choices: Should he stay in the military, or go home to the relaxed atmosphere of private practice? Should he play it safe, or step off into the unknown with the daredevil pilot?

excellent story

I really loved this book, even though it isn't my typical style. The military genre was new to me, and the violence was a little much. However, given the story line, it wasn't overly gory. The characters were likable and well developed. There was the love story woven in, which made the whole book have a positive feel.

Captivating

This book is about a doctor enlisted overseas. He loves his work. After being sent home after being injured he decides to go back. The story was well researched and transports the reader with vivid descriptions of the desert. The characters are complex and make you care about them. the narrator did a pretty good job. Great story.

Will be with me for a while

The story is one that burrows into your soul and takes up residence there. Asa one who works with PTSD patients it's a very heartwarming and at the same time heart-wrenching story. Kelli does a good job of bringing the world to life and keeping you engrossed in the audio. I was given a copy of this audio in return for an unbiased review.

Great Read

Nine Line was a good read by Zachary J. Kitchen. Nick Patterson signed up for the Navy reserves for some money for medical school. He didn’t think that someday he would find himself fighting for life and limb in Iraq. He begins to have doubts as to why he is there and what he is doing. Samantha Brown is an idealistic MEDIVAC pilot that crashes into Nick’s life. I really enjoyed reading Samantha and Nick’s story and cant wait to read more by the author.

Excellent

As an RN this is well written. The author is a doctor and worked in the middle east. Realistic and a very good story. The narrator is perfect too. Highly recommended realistic romance between a MASH doctor and a female helicopter pilot. .
