From New York Times bestselling author Catherine Ryan Hyde comes a
stunning, emotional story of a young soldier's unthinkable
act...and the unbreakable bonds between a sister and brother. Ruth
and her little brother, Aubrey, are just teenagers when their older
brother ships off to Iraq. When Joseph returns, uninjured, only
three and a half months later, Ruth is happy he is safe but also
deeply worried. How can it be that her courageous big brother has
been dishonorably discharged for refusing to go out on duty? Aubrey
can't believe that his hero doesn't have very good reasons. Yet as
the horrifying details of the incident emerge, Joseph disappears.
In their attempts to find him, Ruth and Aubrey discover he has a
past far darker than either of them could imagine. But even as they
learn more about their brother, important questions remain
unanswered-why did he betray his unit, his country, and now his
family? Joseph's refusal to speak ignites a fire in young Aubrey
that results in a disastrous, and public, act of rebellion. The
impact of Joseph's fateful decision one night in Baghdad will echo
for years to come, with his siblings caught between their love for
him and the media's engulfing frenzy of judgment. Will their family
ever make their way back to each other and find a way to forgive?
