Synopsis

The nation’s #1 air-crash investigator—trapped between a simulated disaster and an interagency political war. The best ground-attack support fighter jets ever built—the A-10 Thunderbolt “Warthogs”—are falling out of the sky. The Air Force brass repeatedly schemes to decommission this low-tech jet. They’ve been blocked by soldiers, pilots, and Congress…so far. The “Hog” lies at the crux of a high-tech struggle for power. The interagency political skirmish rapidly escalates into a battle fought on a global scale. Miranda Chase, the NTSB’s autistic air-crash genius, and her team spring into action. The high-risk stakes mount in the battlespace—and a secret from their past could make them the next target. Miranda and her team of sleuths may become the spark that ignites a war.

"'By people I do not mean end strength,' he would emphasize, 'I do not mean MOS's [military occupational specialties], I do not mean files, I do not mean any such categories that deal with people as a commodity. I mean people as individual human beings who make up the squads and the companies and th......more

Goodreads review by Patrick on July 21, 2007

Another general worthy of study by our country's military leaders. Pretty one-sided and uncritical book, though. Viet Nam was way more complex than Sorley makes it out to be, I think! Creighton Abrams deserves a better researched biography in the future. Maybe Carlos D'Este could give it a shot, thou......more

Goodreads review by Robert on June 02, 2009

Not as well-written as some biographies that I've enjoyed. But this book is thoroughly-researched and informative. I continue to revise my perspective on Vietnam and some of the actors.......more
