Description
A California surfer, a Mexican-American immigrant, an African-American auto mechanic, and a high school teacher and mother–they answered the call. In no time they were facing car bombs, AK-47s, and rocket-propelled grenade launchers in a world of poverty, terror, and incomprehensible human cruelty.
Unflinching, realistic, and timely, Into the Fire is a riveting novel of what’s happening in Afghanistan now–as the men and women of the National Guard become soldiers, casualties, and heroes.
