Degrees of Guilt Book PDF Summary
When a helicopter chartered by an anti-seal hunting group buzzes his boat off the coast of Newfoundland, Billy Wheeler downs it with a single shot, killing everyone on board. As his crewmates reel from shock, one thing becomes irrevocably clear: Billy is deep in the throes of PTSD (Post-traumatic Stress Disorder). Born in a fishing village in northern Newfoundland in 1967, the last thing Billy thought he'd become was a soldier. With few career options available due to declining fish stocks, he joins the Canadian Armed Forces. Canada isn't at war with anyone, so he never considers the possibility of combat. His deployment on a peacekeeping mission to Bosnia changes that. There he witnesses the ravages of ethnic cleansing and engages in the savagery of war, discovering an unparalleled propensity for killing. Billy's "success" at war comes at a price-horrific images that threaten to overwhelm his mind. Though he tries to hide his condition and self-medicate, the consequences are predictable. When a personal tragedy turns his world upside down once again, he turns to the one thing he knows best: combat. The mission in Afghanistan is a success, but his PTSD symptoms return with a vengeance, leading to that terrible day off Newfoundland's coast. What emerges is a gripping portrait of one soldier's battle with PTSD, a region's struggles with the trauma that follows the loss of its central industry and way of life, and a story of family, loyalty and finding love when you least expect it....
