I have to say…WOW! Cheryl Tyler’s story kept me turning pages as I followed her life and career. What remarkable things she has experienced, always with her head held high. She discreetly told of instances of systemic racism without naming names. After a successful career, she fought back and won on her own terms. Her years with the Secret Service prepared her for the successful career she created after she left. It wasn’t until the epilogue that Ms. Tyler hit the racism and domestic terrorism and white privilege that, as she put it, was unveiled during the last administration by a hateful, narcissistic person given power. She is appreciative of the subsequent recognition of the need for acceptance that the current administration is trying to foster. All this, still without naming names (but in this epilogue she really doesn’t have to). A very worthwhile book that will make you think and give you plenty to discuss with friends or in book clubs.
