Patriots Day

On the last day of his suspension--as Massachusetts prepares for the demanding annual Boston Marathon--reluctantly, the injured Boston police sergeant, Tommy Saunders, arrives at the bustling-with-people finish line, on April 15, 2013. But, under everyone's noses, amid enthusiastic but unsuspecting spectators, the terrorist Tsarnaev brothers have planted two lethal home-made pressure-cooker bombs. And at the height of the event, the terrorists remotely set them off, killing three people and maiming 264 civilians. Now, with the city plunged into chaos, a relentless area-wide manhunt begins, as the authorities, the F.B.I. and Tommy's comrades-in-arms comb the town to track down the murderers. Will the Bostonians let hate stain Patriots' Day?
