Review:

Returning from Iraq, a soldier kills his commanding officer - but what is the reason? At the centre of Richard North Patterson's customarily gripping narrative In the Name of Honour, are two related groups of individuals, the McCarrans and the Gallaghers, seasoned army families who share a tough common history. But Lt Brian McCarran has returned from a tour of Iraq and is not prepared to talk about his experiences. His commanding officer in Iraq was Captain Joe D'Abruzzo, and tragedy ensues when Brian shoots and kills him (for unexplained reasons) on an army post. This dramatic and unusual plot is handled with great authority by the always reliable Richard North Patterson, whose impressive literary CV includes many compulsively page-turning novels, such as The Race and The Final Judgement.
