- Summary:
-
"Two honourable men - both dramatically transformed by their participation in the Afghanistan conflict and their struggle to control their individual, manifestly affected lives. David Makerson, an Australian Infantry Captain is severely wounded on a routine patrol by an IED explosion. During his rehabilitation, he lapses into depression and anomie; he becomes a shadow of his former self. Saarim Darwish becomes head of his family after his father is executed by the Taliban. Saarim's plans to attend university and study engineering are destroyed as he is forcibly recruited by the insurgents to join their network to construct roadside bombs. Makerson needs to remember and take control over his life. Dangerously under-equipped, he returns to Afghanistan to exact his revenge. Enter Major Hannah Jardine; a military psychologist or the leader of a covert Special Forces operation to locate and cripple the major bomb-making cell in Eastern Afghanistan. Why is she so fixated on Makerson? Who is she really working for?"--Moonglow Publishing.
- Notes:
- "When an Australian infrantry officer is physically and mentally wounded in Afghanistan, he must remake his life and take action, even if that has life-threatening consequences."--Cover.
