Champion of the 2014 PEN/Bellwether Prize for Fiction When Jessica, a air force drone pilot in Nevada, is tasked with launching a missile against a suspected terrorist halfway around the world, she realizes that though women and children are in the crosshairs of her screen, she's no choice but to check out orders. Ethan, a Wall Avenue quant, is involved in a far more bloodless connection to battle when he advances an algorithm that allows his company's clients to profit by exploiting the international instability triggered by exactly this type of antiterrorist strike. Though only small players, the activities of these two different people have global ramifications that tear lives apart - including their own. When Jessica locates herself discharged from the service and Ethan makes an error that costs him his job, both are set adrift, cast out by a corrupt system and required to use the blame for decisions they didn't make. In And Western world Is Western world, Childress has crafted a terrifyingly real circumstance that needs listeners into the lives of the characters living in different worlds yet bound together by makes beyond their control.
