A hilarious and harrowing novel, MANEUVERS is in the vein of Catch-22 and M*A*S*H*, except that it is set in peacetime. As Captain Abe Redden's superior officer likes to remind him, "Warfare is emotionally upsetting to everyone."

First the teenage daughter of a fellow officer dies in the post hospital's emergency room the night Redden is on duty.

The convolutions and confrontations make for a very funny and very poignant story spiced with suspense and insight.
