Marnie Wilson did her duty in Iraq. She did her duty so well, she returned with a medal for valor. If not for the secret she carried home with her, in that same green bag as a medal she never wanted, maybe she could get on with her life.

Somehow, she’s been discovered. All the hiding, keeping a low profile, and obsessing over past mistakes has been for nothing. If she could just uncover what really happened in Iraq, when she was too stupid and confused to look—maybe, just maybe, all her issues would disappear.

Marnie’s circle of friends is nonexistent. All she has are fragile PTSD groupmates, an elementary school principal who desires her, a local cop who thinks she crazy, and an affable service dog named, Buck.

Her barely friends and a dog will have to be enough, because someone is after her. If she doesn’t gather that same warrior courage she found in Iraq real soon and solve the mystery that engulfs her, this time, she might not make it home.
