DRAFTED - Vietnam 1967: A Love Story
One small decision changed everything.
Sue and Jack had been married three days when the letter from the Draft Board ripped their world apart. Turns out Jack had dropped a 3-credit college class to help pay the rent. The Draft Board took notice and within a few short months, Jack was heading to fight in a war that was killing thousands of young men every month. Sue was alone and unsupported by the US
Army, and then left to cope with a young husband who returned from the battlefield with a purple heart and a severe case of undiagnosed PTSD.
In this gripping memoir of love and loss, readers will journey with Sue as her fledgling marriage becomes another casualty of war. -
Shadow of the Mountain - A Novel
In 1963, in West Fork, a fictional logging town in rural Washington State, Faith Henderson, a beloved young Sunday School teacher, is brutally murdered. As the town struggles to move forward, Faith’s sister Claire vows to find her sister’s killer.
