In the ongoing Iraq conflict, there are no battle lines, no direct offensives, no ground won or lost--just the daily fight against an enemy who hits and runs, hides and sneaks. If the enemy shows himself, it's only for a moment. But for a Marine Sniper, that is all that is needed.Readers now have the opportunity, from these warriors' perspective, to peer into the killing zone through a telescopic lens, down the barrel of a high-powered rifle, and into the very heart of the enemy. The training, the techniques, and the steel will necessary to survive as a sniper are all described in vivid detail.Charles Henderson also delves into the core of the enemy--the maniacal ideology, and the tactics that have sown so much violence in Iraq--and how they are all vulnerable to a single bullet from a Ghost.
