Convoy Cover is a story full of adventure and written with the knowledge of a military veteran. Author Dana Duthie has first hand experience with the inner workings of the Air Force and it clearly shows in his writing.

The story starts with the introduction to our main character, Captain Brad Mitchell who is a fighter pilot in the Air Force. We follow Brad through some training exercises that feel like we are just getting ready for the bigger action, but we are also treated to rescue missions that he goes on which are much more exciting. I know I’ve made this reference before but I’m gonna make it again as this novel brings back that same nostalgia and excitement I have for the movie Top Gun. But one thing I find Dana Duthie’s writing does better than Top Gun is it provides various details throughout the book that make this story feel more authentic. What I found most fascinating was the kind of trainings they go through and simulation of scenarios; like what if we were captured a prisoner-of-war?

The story is filled with action. Secrets spilled, fighting and how to fight a war. With each mission you gain victory, and everything has to be carried out with perfect execution. Not to mention the politics that hold the reins over all operations. From the administration to the warriors in the field, everyone is involved. Convoy Cover does a fantastic job of providing readers with this holistic view of war.

The story is well written and the pacing is great. The settings, the tone, the theme are written with plenty of details that will appeal to military aficionados, and fills a genre niche that I’m sure they are looking for. Readers who enjoy war stories and demand well developed and researched books will absolutely love this novel.

Convoy Cover is a riveting military fiction novel that gives readers a glimpse of the troubles warriors go through and how much courage it takes to do their job.
