Target Sitting is the heartbreakingly candid journal of a Capitol Hill staffer in the wake of September 11, 2001. Beginning the week after the 2001 attacks, Target Sitting carries readers through that heart-pounding day, the anthrax attack on the Hill, and the full body shudder associated with working at the seat of government in the ensuing years. Target Sitting is a stark look at life in the target that al Qaeda missed in 2001.
