The Medusa Game

Isabella, a member of the Medusa Project, an all-female Special Forces team in the U.S. Air Force, is assigned to guard a figure skater in the Olympics. The girl is Muslim but raised in Australia in a more liberal manner. The moderate ruler of her home country has allowed her to represent the country in the Olympics, but the conservative Muslim community is opposed, and things may become violent towards her. She needs to be prepared for anything. But things get more complicated rapidly.

Lots of action throughout, especially females showing their stuff under male skepticism. Male MC is in a superior military position. The underlying plot was good, and the female team was great.

The information around the Muslim ideology was interesting show more but not sure how much of it was exact as often things were explained as 'some sects interpreted it this way and some another'. I think the author may have been hedging her bets against saying things wrong. The female MC who came from Mexican Catholicism and Iranian Muslim upbringing was opposed to the female control and expectations of both cultures. show less
