David Drake’s book “Redliners” tells the story of Major Arthur Farrell and Strike Force Company C41, two combat-wounded soldiers who are too traumatized to go back to their normal lives. Their task is to protect a colony that is being transported to a hazardous planet. They are forced to fight for their lives when the mission goes wrong. Hope, atonement, and the difficulties of reintegrating veterans into society are among the issues that are covered in the book.
