What's the Blue One? Bob Thompson

Sent to Sarajevo to write "good-news stories," a part-time reservist finds himself in over his head. It's been 5-years since the end of the war, but there's still millions of landmines, lots of weapons, and lots of killing. Why isn't NATO's nation-building program working? Why isn't anyone catching the genocidal maniacs who led the deaths of nearly 200,000 people and the displacement of 2.2-million? Before he knows it, this unlikely investigator is in a battle for his life as he closes in on a suicidal-butcher, a former-cop-turned-mass-murderer, a propagandist-turned-president, and one of the war's most ruthless killers: "The Wolf." In the end, all have to face some hard truths about humanity and themselves as more mass graves are uncovered and less and less survivors are left. This mystery story is inspired by real war criminals and true world events. Awarded the blue NATO medal, veteran peacekeepers are often at a loss to describe their tour in the Balkans. Most just shrug and say, "Bosnia." This book tells their story and the fine line between vengeance and justice.
