And west is west
(Book)
"When Jessica, a young Air Force drone pilot in Nevada, is tasked with launching a missile against a suspected terrorist halfway across the world, she realizes that although women and children are in the crosshairs, she has no choice but to follow orders. Ethan, a young Wall Street quant, is involved in a more bloodless connection to war when he develops an algorithm that enables his company’s clients to profit from the financial instability caused by this kind of antiterrorist strike. These two are only minor players, but their actions have global implications that tear lives apart—including their own."--
