Attack from Within Kathleen C Sales

Attack from Within, Book 2 of Saving Superman Saga, picks up Pete's life ten years after Saving Superman. Pete has just returned to the States from Vietnam where he served with the Marines as a Medic. But he can't remember any details of the violent attack that ended his last mission, and he doesn't understand why he has a general discharge. After a fight with his ex-Marine father, Pete flees Tennessee and drives north. In Detroit, the murder city, Pete makes new friends, but he's faced with violent riots, treacherous drug dealers, and is tortured by corrupt police. While struggling with flashbacks about Vietnam, Pete barely escapes death in a sudden drug war. Rescuing his girlfriend, he heads back to Tennessee, but still teeters on the edge of self-destruction. With support from friends, Pete starts work at a psychiatric hospital which prompts him to enter college. A visit to his war buddies out in San Diego helps solve the mystery of what happened back in 'Nam and clears a path for Pete into the future. Attack from Within is a gripping story about recovery from war-induced stress. It features fast-paced action as it unravels a wartime mystery. But the insight it provides into the mind of a survivor is what makes this book both gutsy and inspiring.
