From the review above this book seems just the right one to enable one enjoy a journey of suspense, action and nature all in one. I like the way this book has been explained and in as much as this book has been recommended for people who love thrillers, I'm going to add this to my bookshelf. I feel that I can relate more to this book because of the adventure it brings and the thrill of the action, fighting inner demons and finally overcoming. Thank you reviewer for the good review.

Thank you InStoree for another great review.  My first thought after reading the review was,“How many veterans chose similar lifestyles as Declan due to untreated PTSD.  This book may be a work of fiction, but I’msure it mirrors many true-life experiences. Congrats on BOTD

What is harder? To fight against your enemy in a war? Or to fight against the inner demons that you bring back with you? These questions, forming the basis upon which the story is written, make me even more interested in reading this book. Thanks for the review.

I appreciate the complexity of the plot, but books on war and drugs are not my thing. Congrats though!

This may not be my favouite genre. Therefore, I will skip this for the time being. Nevertherless, This is a well compiled review! :tiphat:

Very appealing storyline, enticing characters and extremely promising review! What's more it is free! After reading description and provided details I can't wait to start reading this book, we all fight with inner demons to some extent, unfortunately for veterans it is so much more complicated. I want to believe it will end well for Declan.

Did Declan walk away from the juicy fruity marijuana, or will he need to be rehabilitated? A great story
