I, Sniper: a Bob Lee Swagger novel

I was wandering around the local borders today and I saw Stephen Hunter’s latest Bob Lee Swagger novel, I, Sniper, on the shelf. Ha! The general plot is that a sniper kills four 60’s era radicals. The FBI blames a Vietnam contemporary of Swagger’s and Swagger goes on a hunt for the truth. In the first few pages Jane Fonda, Bill Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn knock-offs get popped by a sniper. I was gonna read it anyway, and I wish mayhem of that sort on no one, but that’s just gravy. This I gotta read.
