Hellfire - Ellsworth John

A Syrian wedding party is mistakenly incinerated by a Hellfire missile fired from an American drone. Many are killed, but one survivor turns to an American lawyer for help in bringing the responsible parties to justice. The survivor is the bride-to-be and she is furious. Besides seeing justice done in an American court, she also is ready for payback of her own with a weapon of mass destruction.

The American lawyer called on to obtain justice is Christine Susmann. Together with her lunch group known as Sisters In Law, the pursuit of justice begins. Old loves are re-visited by the sisters and new romances take root as their daily lives become focused on the Syrian wedding party gone awry.

A trial follows. The accused are brothers who are oil-rich and looking to obtain Syrian oil for their own tankers. Christine decides to send them all to the bottom of the sea.

Will this help her client heal?

Or will it only rain down more sorrow on a broken life?
