Clare Fergusson is finally home from her tour of duty in Iraq. Russ Van Alstyne has been crazy waiting for her to come home. It doesn't take Clare long to realize that as happy she is to be home, everything is not okay. She is drinking way to much and relying on pills to help her through the day. She is part of a counseling group for returning soldiers and it seems that each of them is having their own struggles coping. When one of them is found dead, Clare won't accept Russ' declaration that she committed suicide. She and her group, damaged as they are, set out to find the truth.
I have waited and waited for this book and it was so worth it. It wasn't easy seeing Clare as messed up as she was but I thought this book was pretty realistic. We cannot imagine how difficult it is for our soldiers to readjust when they come home. The various issues that the members of Clare's group faced seemed very true to life. Once again, this is one of my very favorite series and I can't wait for the next edition.
