Semper Fi Brothers

Yarmuck, Syria is under attack. ISIS goons under the command of ruthless Commander Abu, have infiltrated the village and are determined to purge it of its Yazidi heritage… by any means necessary.
Meanwhile, half a world away in California, tormented Shamus “Gunny” O’Malley—retired Marine and Vietnam Vet who’s done nothing but drink his way through civilian life as a TV personality and bar owner—learns his young Yazidi bartender, Quassam, fears for the lives of the family left behind in Yarmuck.
When Quassam, “Q” to his friends, announces his plan to save his mother and sister from the ISIS goons, Gunny’s hapless best friend (and best customer), Buzz, decides he’s going to aid young Q on his journey, and does everything he can to convince Gunny to come along for the ride.
With time running out and ISIS tightening its grip, Gunny has a decision to make. As the son of a white father and black mother, O’Malley knows from his time in the Marines that race can never break the bonds between semper fi brothers. Will he stay brash and boozy in sunny California, or will he take a leap of faith and journey to hellish, war-torn Syria to help his brothers and slay his—and Yarmuck’s—demons?
