Based on Fletcher's experiences, The War Reporter is a suspense-filled and beautifully-written novel of war with all of its atrocities and the long process of healing after the fighting ceased. A touching love story between the reporter and his interpreter is deftly intertwined with the dangerous research for a documentary on a war criminal in hiding while struggling to cope with their own lingering demons from the war. This novel reads more like a thriller than a memoir. Highly recommended.
