Jeff Bailey's Not On My Watch offers a peek behind the scenes at the U.S. military. Bailey raises the stakes with a terrifyingly realistic plot, placing Cassie Sing, a soon-to-be full-fledged Marine into the protagonist's role. She must thwart the nefarious attempts of bad guys seeking to get away with murder and the theft of nuclear weapons. I enjoyed the female lead who demonstrates courage and a cool head under dire circumstances. Bailey's knowledge of the inner workings of the Marine Corps and his way of weaving it throughout the story are impressive.
