<p><b>''Expansive, explosive and epic'' Marlon James</b><br><b>''A </b><b>courageous book'' <i>New York Times Book Review</i></b><br><br><b>A BARACK OBAMA BOOK OF THE YEAR 2020</b><br><br>Neither Mason, a US Special Forces medic, nor Lisette, a foreign correspondent, has emerged from America''s long wars in Iraq and Afghanistan unscathed. Yet, for them, war still exerts a terrible draw - the noble calling, the camaraderie, the life-and-death stakes. Where else in the world can such a person go?<br><br>All roads lead to Colombia, where the US has partnered with the local government to stamp out a vicious civil war and keep the predatory narco gangs at bay. Mason is ready for the good war, and Lisette is more than ready to cover it.</p>
