Broken Under Interrogation, By Jeffrey M. Hopkins
Yo. Here is the cover of Broken Under Interrogation, written by me, Jeffrey M. Hopkins and published independently (that means by me) using the company Booksurge LLC.
If you want to know what it is about, here it is in a nutshell.
A young man joins the army to run away from a situation in which he is going nowhere, he is well trained and heads off to Iraq to serve his country. In Iraq, he lives with a group of Iraqi men performing an intelligence functionality. They teach him much more about life and his job than he could ever teach them. He loses his innocence in Iraq. Upon returning from Iraq, and his dismissal from the Army for psychological reasons, he returns to his rust belt hometown to find it drowning in dope and hopelessness. He takes it upon himself to use his training in the “Iraqi methods” to collect intelligence on, track, kidnap, and torture drug dealers.
Broken Under Interrogation could glorify war. It does not. It is a scream from hell. The hell of the Global War on Terror. The hell at the periphery of the American dream, that place of white picket fences, SUVs, megastores, peace, freedom, and security – and the American nightmare of prisons, security at any cost, and endless war.
I urge anyone with an inkling of curiosity to read the book for themselves.
Broken Under Interrogation is available at Amazon.com, and bookstores everywhere.
