I had the pleasure of reading "Not on My Watch", by Jeff Bailey. The basic premise is one that is quite frankly, scary in its believability, because we have a number of crazies in this country with very similar ideas to the antagonists in this book. The hero is US Marine Cassandra Sing, who gets caught up in a theft of nuclear weapons from an Oklahoma military base by supremacists wanting to return to the original ideas of the Constitution, although apparently without the racist rhetoric that most such people in real life today embody. The action is tense, and is occasionally interrupted by flashbacks in Sing's life, showing her progression into the Marines. It embodies her determination, strength, and devotion to her duty, which should be an example for all US military personnel. The flashbacks sometimes came at unexpected moments, but this isn't a bad thing. Occasionally, it did cause me to lose track of where the main story was, but I picked it up again pretty quickly. If you, or anyone in your family, has been in the military, they'll see a lot of themselves in this story. For those who haven't, this story is a good way to better understand their mentality and commitment. Kudos to Jeff Bailey for an outstanding story! I'm looking forward to reading his next one.
