The extraordinary true story of American special operator and trailblazer Shannon Kent, who hunted high-value targets on classified missions in the most dangerous locales on earth while trying to balance her life as a wife and mother--cowritten by her husband Joe Kent, a retired special operative and the former Director of the U.S. National Counterterrorism Center
Of the 1.3 million active-duty service members in the US military, only a tiny fraction are selected as "operators." Shannon Kent was one of the first women to serve at this level and was widely recognized as one of the best.
Shannon served as a Navy cryptologic technician, responsible for signals intelligence and electronic warfare, but her proficiency with language set her apart. She was assigned to a unit so secretive that its name can't even be printed here, where she worked clandestinely to hunt the most wanted terrorists in the world.
Send Me is Shannon's heroic life story, revealing the truth of both her work and the challenges she faced while trying to raise a family with her husband Joe, himself a Special Forces soldier. He and Shannon met in a war zone, their love forged during a special operations training course, their dedication spanning multiple combat deployments and the birth of their two boys.
It is the inspiring legacy of an extraordinary woman who rose to the apex of the military, working with the most elite forces in the world, lifting the veil from the life of a Special Forces family to share their duty, sacrifice, and humanity.
This powerful military biography reveals the hidden realities of her life:
- A Trailblazing Woman in Special Ops: Learn how Shannon Kent became one of the first women to serve at the operator level, widely recognized by her peers as one of the best.
- Secret Counter-Terrorism Missions: Go inside the classified world of a Navy cryptologic technician responsible for signals intelligence, electronic warfare, and hunting the world's most wanted terrorists.
- A Special Forces Love Story: Discover the story of Shannon and her husband Joe, two special operators who met in a war zone and built a life and family across multiple combat deployments.
- Duty, Sacrifice, and Family: A rare, humanizing look at the impossible balance between clandestine warfare and raising two sons, lifting the veil on the life of a Special Forces family.
