Rachel Reviews: The Greater Good by Frank Sapienza
One of the joys of reading is that you are often presented with situations that you can only hope to imagine. They could be fantastical but they could also be based on real life scenarios. Some of these can be good but some of them can be the embodiment of your worst nightmare.

Like The Terminator or Sophie's Choice as two excellent examples.
