I really liked this book. I don't think it's for everyone but, for me, the military experiences, particularly boot camp and CID investigations, really rang true.

I also want to disclose that the author is a friend of mine.… (plus d'informations)

This is a book that has bounced on and off my maybe pile. I finally pulled the trigger and read, despite the ugly opening, because I'm on a search, at the moment, for the "other". Like, this book here has both someone in a wheelchair, and a person of color.
