Very short story but has many little twists and turns. I would have liked it to be a bit longer, but given the format, it works as a novella. Tight casting and even fewer scenes make this a possible episode for TV on a budget.

This book is a great short read. It has it all; a great beginning, an entertaining middle and an ending both satisfying and leaving the reader wanting to know more. Told in a snappy yet wonderfully descriptive way, we meet Ellie, a retired Army Captain, and her ex husband Grady, a once-vibrant Green Beret now dissolute drunk, along with a mysterious Air Force Captain who takes an instant dislike to Grady. But time is of the essence and they all must put away their prejudices to save a couple who have gone down in an air crash on a snowy mesa.
Ms Jordan is a skilled storyteller who sets the story up on the first page and keeps it tight until the last page, with a few surprises along the way.
Though the story was complete in itself, as in all of life this episode was not the end of the adventure. I hope the author keeps these short stories coming. I'm looking forward to reading more...
