Luther Redding pilots a Reaper drone over the mountains of Afghanistan from a command centre in the bowels of Tampa's MacDill Air Force Base, studying a target's pattern of life and awaiting the command to end that life. Bobby Rosen has returned home from his tours in Iraq to a broken marriage and an estranged son. As the tales of Luther and Bobby unfold, Mark Powell masterfully engages with the vexing, bifurcated lives of combatants in the global war on terror.
