Hold It 'Til It Hurts A Novel.

A riveting debut-a black Afghanistan veteran in search of his lost brother amid the chaos of Hurricane Katrina. "[A] powerful, stylish debut novel . . . The stark backstory fleshing out Achilles and Troy's arduous combat duty over in 'Goddamnistan' smartly plays off the thorough exploration of modern American attitudes on race, war, and family." -Publishers Weekly
