The unit has just returned to England from a month of combat in Normandy. Replacements fill the ranks, among them Private Dean Winchester. He left his own war on the home front, but attacks on the men of Easy prove that there's always something to hunt. Why are only Normandy vets being targeted? What’s behind all the attacks? And why has Dean abandoned his little brother, his father and his work for the Airborne anyway?
