Stunning action, excellent tradecraft, insider politics, and the ring of truth. Just about perfect. ---Lee Child The 3rd Battalion has a veteran sniper, Staff Sergeant Jack Coughlin, for whom the war in Iraq was only the latest of many wars; he fought in Mogadishu, too. On the first day of battle at the Diyala Bridge, he had eleven kills. He is one of the best snipers in the Marine Corps, perhaps the very best. When I asked one of his commanders about his skills, the commander smiled and said, 'I'm just glad he's on our side.' ---Peter Maas, war correspondent and bestselling author of Love Thy Neighbor <br>
