Even more extraordinary is the man behind the offer and the one who will be beside her through the coming weeks, Hunter Pierce. This is the last assignment Hunter would pick. Determination and grit have moved him beyond his past in Bariavak.
Yet, here it is standing in front of him again, refusing to be ignored.
