Suspense
Retired Army Ranger Thomas Lane once burned for the taste of
gunpowder and the thrill of the battle. But as he struggles
to cope with his own PTSD and the death of his eldest son,
killed by an IED in Afghanistan, Lane learns that the price
of war is far too dear. When the National Guard calls up Lane's youngest son to
serve, Lane knows he will do anything to save his
child--even if it means going in his place, a pursuit
unheard of since the Civil War when slaves were sent to war
in place of their masters. In His Stead, Judith Sander's second novel, follows Thomas
Lane's crusade against the United States Army, its JAG
corps, a vengeful officer, the very son he is desperate to
save, and his own wife, who has the Solomon-like choice of
losing either a husband or a son. Capturing the essence of family life in wartime--the good,
the bad, and the hopeful--In His Stead explores what it
means to be a father and a man.
