Charlie is serving in Afghanistan, and as a woman, is not supposed to be on the front line; however, her unit witnesses a helicopter being shot down and they quickly move to rescue any survivors. As it turns out, on board is a Special Forces unit on a secret mission to free some hostages and try to capture a high value enemy target. With some personnel dying in the crash, the Special Forces team requests volunteers, including the rescue unit's best marksman, which, of course, is actually a markswoman (Charlie.) Charlie goes along, and has to make a number of critical, split-second decisions to kill/save lives. My favorite part is that the Special Forces team will not even provide their names to Charlie and the other volunteers from her unit so they dub them the Spice Girls: Scary, Sporty, Ginger and Posh.

"Charlie Fox is one of the toughest cookies you could ever hope to meet. A work of advice -- don't try to get her to talk about her time in the military. Let's just say it didn't end well. But before her fall from grace, Charlie was considered a rising star. She made it through one of the hardest challenges any soldier would have to face -- Selection for Special Forces. The nightmare that came next is a story I've explored in scenes and flashbacks throughout the series. But what happened before that? Back when Charlie was a young soldier in the regular army, on patrol in Afghanistan, being kept away from the front line fighting as stipulated by the regulations concerning female personnel. What did she do back then to prove her worth as a specialised soldier, under life-and-death conditions? How did she earn her chance? That is a story I've never told. Until now"--Back cover.
