Summary
Eight years a soldier, Peter Ash came home from Iraq and Afghanistan with only one souvenir: what he calls 'white static', a buzzing claustrophobia due to post-traumatic stress that has driven him to spend a year roaming the Pacific coast's mountains and forests, sleeping under the stars.
But when a friend from the marines commits suicide, Ash returns to civilisation to help the man's widow and two young children. While repairing her dilapidated porch, he makes two unwelcome discoveries: the first is a dog, the meanest, ugliest dog he's ever laid eyes on, guarding a suitcase; the second unwelcome surprise is the suitcase's contents—$400,000 in cash and four slabs of plastic explosive.
Just what was his friend caught up in during his final days? Ash will find that the demons of war aren't easy to leave behind....
Critic reviews

A great read
Nick Petrie is a good writer, I don't understand why more of his books are not available on Audible or why more members are not reading them. They're definitely missing out.

Superb Like Baldacci vs Patterson
Great narration and plot. If you enjoy Alex Cross, Amos Decker, Private books this is for you.

An enjoyable read
This was an entertaining book that kept me company on my dog walks. If you like Jack Reacher you will likely enjoy this story. The narrator did a great job bringing the characters to life. I'm already looking up the next Peter Ash novel!
