As the director of the Department of the Army’s Central Identification Laboratory, Robert Dean “Kel” McKelvey has made a career solving some of the country’s most complex identification cases. The CIL is responsible for identifying all U.S. war dead from battlefields old and new around the world. The caseload is endless, the endgame invaluable. Kel’s work — the examination of a bone or bone fragment — may bring blessed closure to thousands of military families and loved ones left behind. But after fifteen years at the CIL, Kel is fast approaching emotional meltdown. And that’s when he encounters his thorniest case yet: the recovery of Jimmie Carl Trimble, a soldier from Arkansas who died a hero’s death during the Vietnam War.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Trouble is, only 20% of those who enter the service will survive the three year term and collect the handsome stipend waiting for them at the end. She’s willing to take the chance, but\u00a0once she gets in, she finds that all the normal rules of society don\u2019t apply.

But we don’t get Marlowe. We get Billy Stringer, and Billy is on nobody’s trail. He’s the prey.<\/p>\n

The story unfolds in the course of a single day, and it hasn’t begun very well for Billy. He just messed up his first big assignment, he’s definitely going to be late for work, his girlfriend won’t get back to him and for reasons she has something to do with, he’s dressed like a clown.<\/p>\n
