Donovan Campbell graduated with honors from Princeton University and Harvard Business School, finished first in his class at the Marines’ Basic Officer Course, and served three combat deployments–two in Iraq and one in Afghanistan. As a junior at Princeton he decided that attending Marine Corps Officer Candidate School would look good on his résumé. Three years later, in the spring of 2004, he was in Iraq commanding a platoon known by its radio call sign, Joker One. His new book tells this story, and his, in an outstanding narrative of the Iraq War. Joker One counted around 40 men: country boys and small town jocks; a few Hispanics and a single black. Some were college men with futures; some had pasts they preferred to forget. The battalion was assigned to one of Iraq's worst hot spots: the city of Ramadi, where faceless enemies found shelter among 350,000 Iraqi civilians. Joker One fought from street to street, house to house and ambush to ambush for seven straight months. By the end of the tour, even the Gunny's hands had started ceaselessly shaking, Donovan writes. Faced with urgent life-and-death decisions, Donovan had learned that there are no great options... you live with the results and shut up about the whole thing. For all his constant self-questioning, Lt. Donovan Campbell brought Joker One home with only one KIA—a record as impressive as his account.
Don Dahler was a war correspondent for ABC-News during the Iraq War and has worked for 20/20, Nightline, Good Morning America, and CNBC. He is currently a news anchor and reporter for WCBS TV in New York and the author of A Tight Lie. This new novel features Huck Doyle, a professional golfer, a PGA “middler” who just manages to hold onto his tour card as he plays the small tournaments on the circuit. He also happens to be the son of a disgraced LAPD cop, a law school grad without a license to practice, and a registered private investigator. When Joniel Baker, a high profile baseball player, claims that he’s been wrongly accused of murder, he asks his friend Doyle to get involved, to fly under the radar and find out things that the police can’t—or won’t. Though everything about Joniel and his whereabouts on the night of the murder points to his guilt, Huck decides to take on the case, “because he finds murder investigations a nice distraction from the violent and depressing world of the PGA.” With the speed of Tiger Wood’s swing, Don Dahler has joined the ranks of Tim Green and Mike Lupica in writing riveting mysteries with a dash of sports.
