The story does have a nice plot though war stories atimes do not interest me. It would make a good movie but unfortunately for the book is not one of my normal reads.

Thanks for the review. I thought it was a bit heavy on the jargon as well.

I love reading about events that have impacted on today's society although I usually steer away from war and military themes. 9/11 touched many people worldwide and should make an interesting read. I will give it a try. Thanks for the review.

Hey Geoffrey, congrats on having read a BOTD! This one does not sound like it's for me because of the action genre and the overuse of military jargon. Good job on your review, though.

Even if the World Trade Center tragedy happened 15 years ago, we still feel the pain of losing a family member, a friend, a colleague, or an acquaintance. This story is an avenue for us to reminisce the past with a hopeful perspective. This story is heart-warming.

I'm not sure that this book is for me, but I'm glad that you enjoyed it. I don't normally like thrillers about real life events. It's too bad that there were editing errors in this, especially in a book about this subject. Great review!

I'm not much on military thrillers, but this one sounds a bit different because of the 9/11 connection. That was such a terrible day for all Americans. Thanks for your insight.
