From the Back Cover
A TEENAGE TERRORIST WHO HAS TO PROVE HIMSELF...
A general who does not want to be a general
A sixteen-year-old trigger-man anticipating his first kill
A beautiful teenage girl forced to use woman's weapons in a deadly game
And the misfit son of the head of Inner Delta, a secret intelligence unit, who learns that it is possible to die more than once.
Set high on a bridge in Massachusetts, a powerful drama of patriotism and daring unfolds, where ordinary people are forced to perform heroic acts, and the innocent play murderous roles.
"A psychological thriller written in crackling prose. If any author in the field can challenge J.D. Salinger or William Golding, it is Robert Cormier."
