Synopsis

Published by Onward Press, a military veterans' non-profit. All sales contribute to its mission to help veterans tell their stories.

In the hot blast of the Kuwaiti desert, Sgt. Amanda Ashe, on guard duty, snaps and fires her weapon at an Army Special Forces captain. She missed. Arrested, hog-tied and shipped to a lock-down Army psych ward, Amanda says the guy and a couple of his men raped her. No one buys that story. Alone inside the Army's nut house, Amanda sets out to prove her accusations. But who will help? The whacky assortment of fellow inmates? Nurses? Doctors? And what will the Army do to keep Sgt Amanda Ashe quiet?
