Why read it?

Finally, a competent female veteran character, Camille who is struggling with what it means to be home as a mother set against a backdrop of murder she finds familiar.

And it’s a mystery, thoroughly crafted by a female veteran author in her debut, Elizabeth Lewes.
From Alicia's list on thrillers on veterans beyond “thank you for your service".
