During World War II, Vernon served in Europe with the Third Army and received a Bronze Star Medal in February 1945.
The courage he saw among ordinary civilians impressed him deeply. How they managed to cope suggested a fiction story about a family in a small country invaded by the Nazis.
Political corruption in Chicago seasoned the plot with Marj's observations as a poll watcher and precinct worker in the 1950s and 1960s. Vote frauds aroused her Irish and propelled her into reform efforts.
The battle goes on. A Key To Treason illustrates the desperation and self-sacrifice of those determined to make a difference.view less
