Enjoyed this book a lot. Couldn't put it down after page 1. Engrossing story, rich character development, puzzle pieces are given one by one till you get the whole story. Satisfying ending.
The John Puller Series is a good one and this one is no exception.
John is an Army Investigator and his father, a retired 3-Star General suffering from dementia is apparently accused of murdering his wife 30 years ago. She had disappeared without a trace.
John and his brother, an Air Force Major, take on the cold case of trying to find out what really happened to their mother, despite the Army's objection.
Introducing Paul, a man who was part of a secret Army experiment to make (the perfect soldier), and was made into a monster, a killing machine with guerilla strength. His one aim in life is to kill the person who tortured him and made him into a monster.
I totally loved this exciting story, felt sorry for Paul and the ending was perfect.

Gift Copy!
This book is a great book. Thirty years ago, when Puller and his brother were boys, their mother mysteriously vanished one evening while they were stationed at the military post of Fort Monroe. Now a letter has appeared, written by one of her friends at the time, that accuses their father, a former three-star general, of murdering her. Puller feels compelled to investigate the allegations made in that letter.
Meanwhile, a convicted killer is released from prison and begins an odyssey to seek revenge on the people responsible for a grievous wrong he feels was perpetrated on him thirty years ago at a secret installation at Fort Monroe.
As these two quests converge, it becomes apparent that things aren't as they seem on the surface, and that powerful forces are in play determined to block Puller's investigation, as well as destroy the paroled convict.
I really enjoyed this book. The characterizations were fully three-dimensional. The pacing was tight but not breathless. The plot was believable, and engrossing. A thoroughly enjoyable reading experience.
