In the shadow of the 9/11 tragedy, Elliot Walker, a young man from Washington State, is
forever changed when his younger brother is killed during a school field trip to the Twin
Towers. Devastated and consumed by grief, Elliot enlists in the military, seeking purpose
and vengeance in the wake of his loss. His deployment to Afghanistan seems like an
opportunity to confront the pain and rage he harbors. Still, the realities of war forced him to
reevaluate everything he thought he understood about life, love, and justice.
