Rule of Law

What did the president know? And when did she know it?
For the members of SEAL Team Six, it was a rare mission ordered by the president, monitored in real time from the Situation Room. The Houthi rebels in Yemen had captured an American journalist and a member of the Saudi royal family. Their executions were scheduled for Easter Sunday. The SEAL team would break them out.
But when the mission results in spectacular failure, the finger-pointing goes all the way to the top.
Did the president play political games with the lives of U.S. service members?
Paige Chambers, a determined young lawyer, has a very personal reason for wanting to know the answer. The case she files will polarize the nation and test the resiliency of the Constitution. The stakes are huge, the alliances shaky, and she will be left to wonder if the saying on the Supreme Court building still holds true.
Equal justice under law.
ISLAND BREEZES
Falling in love is a little scary. Falling in love with a SEAL Team Six member is even scarier.
So how did Paige as a rookie lawyer go from love to presenting a case before the Supreme Court? And did the U.S. president really throw the SEALs to the wolf? Why did she call off the extraction team?
Mr. Singer had me in tears by the sixth chapter and on the edge of my seat through the rest of the book. Talk about adrenaline! I couldn’t turn the pages quickly enough, and I for sure didn’t want the book to end.
This is the first of Mr. Singer’s books that I’ve read. I definitely don’t want it to be my last. Thank you, Mr. Singer, for adding to my “must read authors” list.
