Ordinary Heroes tells the story of a son, Stewart Dubinski trying to find out who his father David Dubin, was after his death and realizing that he really did not know him. He discovered that during WWII his father had been tried for treason and Court Marshalled, only to have it overturned shortly afterwords for unknown reason.
Stewart makes it a crusade to find out what happened with his father during WWII and finds a manuscript his father wrote to explain what happened leading up to his Court Marshall, detailing espionage, law, blood, sorrow and death.
Besides what I felt were a few poor transitions between the present and past (WWII) in the narrative of the book, I enjoyed this story, the telling of the story and portrayal of the craziness of wartime. It was engaging, I wanted to find out about the story behind David Dubin just as much as Steward did. It's as good of a story about the Ward as I have read, and would recommend it to others.
