Ordinary Heroes by Scott Turow

Whilst mourning the death of his father, courtroom journalist Stewart Dubin decides to research the life of a man he had always respected, always admired, but possibly never quite knew ... As a young, idealist lawyer during the last terrible months of the Second World War, David Dubin was sent to the European Front - obstensibly to bring charges against a brave American hero, Robert Martin, who had suddenly, inexplicably, gone local. No longer following orders from his superiors, Martin has become a liability and General Rollie Tweedle wants him neutralised. But as Dubin learns more about Martin and the demons possessing him, he finds himself falling in love with Martin's enigmatic ex-mistress, a woman of supreme bravery and dangerous anger. And someone who will do anything to protect her comrade-in-arms ... Stewart discovers a journal written by his father - and learns of his incredible courage in the face of battle, reading first-hand of the shattering moral consequences for those caught in the chaos of war and, finally, the secret he had died protecting ... This 2005 Macmillan Paperback is in good condition.
