US6 Book II: The Nūn of Babylon "I can tell you're not a true believer by how you're not screaming."The second story begins a millisecond after Book I, when not hundreds of thousands or thirty years in the past. In alternating chapters we read the first-person accounts of two co-tagonists in Iraq: Emit Archer, who heads a sniper team in the south, and Agent Emvee, a female CIA agent in Northern Iraq posing as a nun visiting a monastery near Mosul/Nineveh. This prequel to Book I helices Emit's past mythically with the co-tagonists: a gifted daughter of a high-level diplomat/soldier who was tossed out of the Girl Scouts for singing an ancient incantation instead of supercalifragilisticexpialidocious like the other "Brownieshirts." We follow this feisty and "ethnically exotic nerd girl" - who has more black belts and marksmanship medals than pop culture references - become a sharpened tool for CIA. And then some.
