The attack on Pearl Harbor brings the United States into the Second World War and sends Deacon Cole from the Appalachian Mountains into the Pacific. His skill with a rifle makes him valuable to Patrol Easy, but neither hunting experience nor basic training fully prepares him for amphibious warfare and an enemy defending unfamiliar islands.

Deke encounters a Japanese marksman whose patience and concealment rival his own. Their duel develops across beaches and jungle positions while the patrol attempts to secure the island. Deke must learn to protect a squad rather than hunt alone, accepting that every shot may reveal his location to the opposing sniper.
