I'm putting this book review in GD because
Edited on Fri Oct-29-10 10:59 AM by ensho

it may be the first novel to delve into our authorized and hidden torture


Rock Paper Tiger by Lisa Brackmann (one brave woman)

its about a injured woman vet of Iraq invasion and occupation.

the book starts with her living in China, a China you all probably know nothing about. really.

with flash backs to her time in Iraq during OUR TORTURING adventures.

reading this you will be rapt, upset, astonished and won't want to put the book down. very suspenseful.

1. I'm the author
Glad you liked the book. It's gotten a fair amount of review coverage but interestingly very little commentary on the political issues, which to me are pretty overt. I'm really happy that readers like you are getting it, because the War on Terror™ was what motivated me to write it.

5. Many thanks, all!
I've lurked here in the past -- it's such a big place that I guess I find it a little overwhelming!
