In 1968, twenty-one-year-old Fred McCarthy transitioned from the monastic life of a seminary student to that of a U.S. Army helicopter gunship commander in Vietnam. Despite preparation from a family tradition of decorated combat service, a strong sense of patriotism, a love for aviation, and a desire for adventure, he got far more than he bargained for. Written after 50 years of reflection, reading, and study, this memoir tells both a universal story about war, adventure, and perseverance and, also shares the intensely personal experience of the Vietnam War and its legacy for those who fought in it. McCarthy describes many of his missions, reflects on the nature of being a combat helicopter pilot, and processes the experience through his poetry, letters home, and reflective analysis.

This practical book leads us into a spirituality of passion that leads to compassion--coming to our senses in every meaning of the phrase.

A love triangle shapes this intricate murder mystery from the popular twentieth-century author of the Rachel Murdock series. When a policeman shows up at her door one morning, Doris Chenoweth is sure her husband, Sargent, is home—but she’s wrong. He’s been found dead in his car at the edge of a reservoir. With no one else to turn to, Doris calls her elderly uncle Chuck, knowing he has no real reason to help her since they’ve fallen out of touch. But to Doris’s relief, Chuck comes to her aid, armed with his law degree. Acting as her attorney, he delves into her husband’s affairs—business and romantic. The revelations come fast and furiously, pointing to infidelity, shady stock investments, and a betrayal of the worst kind. And when Chuck realizes Doris has secrets of her own—ones that could land her in jail—he must determine which is a greater motive for murder: love or money . . .
