Sinopsis

Mr. Davis gives us a film noir collection of intriguing, heart breaking, and insightful essays.áReal people and actual events emerge from this collection in ways you wonâÇÖt forget. Each draws us deeper into the questions we raise when we demand others serve in theásecret world for their country.In Around the Corner we find more thought provoking true stories from the Cold War,áits bloody aftermath, and our own America today. Rain swept streets and dark corners serve not only as background, but also as metaphor. Around dark corners on a rainy street, what seems at first glance clear, might not be so. We see only indistinct outlines, asáthrough a glass darkly, what may be true, could as well be only partly so, or even tragically false. So too with our beliefs about who we are. He observes events, people, laws,áchance, and history from the perspective of a soldier, historian, liaison officer, husbandáand father.Davis reminds us that actions in the secret world, especially against spies and terrorists, when conducted by a liberal democracy, give no one a free pass from basic right and wrong. YouâÇÖll find a strange new world tantalizinglyárevealed here. YouâÇÖll even find reason for hope.
