About this ebook
As a C-141 bounces around in the turbulent atmosphere above Kadena Air Force Base, no one on board—including Tech Sergeant Dominic Torelli—ever imagines what will happen next. As the plane approaches the runway, an air traffic controller sees something on his radar screen. Just as Staff Sergeant Asa Williams yanks his headphones off, his screen lights up. The C-141 and a general’s plane have just collided in midair.
As Asa is left trying to explain why he is not responsible for the horrifying accident, Dom is left in a hospital recovering from critical injuries. The repercussions of the crash are great for both men: Asa is grounded as an air traffic controller and Dom is scarred for life. As fate leads both men to meet, become friends, and begin a Vietnam tour together, Dom faces yet more personal challenges as Asa struggles to learn a new job. While Dom is led on a journey of self-discovery where he must try to distinguish between reality and fantasy, Asa uncovers the truth about his unexplainable connection to Dom.
In this military novel, two Vietnam soldiers who bravely face tragedies must survive not only the war, but also the subsequent emotions in order to find redemption and peace.
