When A Warrior Comes Home - Paperback

by Pete Barber (Author)

Sarah Braeman's Skype connection to Iraq is lost during a video call to her husband, a US Army sergeant. As air raid sirens shriek from her computer's speakers, her laptop displays an image of Mike's face, frozen in fear. Medics repair Mike's leg injury. But when he returns home, Sarah is thrust into the role of caregiver to a man she hardly recognizes. Tortured by wild mood swings, flashbacks, and anti-social behaviors, her husband becomes a danger to himself and others. A business opportunity seems to offer a way out for Mike from a military that now considers him weak and surplus to requirements. But can Sarah risk her family's future on a man who may be damaged beyond repair?
