About this series
In sleepy Sweet Water, Alabama, one family has had its fair share of conflict but still Christian George does his duty, like his father and uncle before him.
The Vietnam War was different to other wars though, a war that couldn't be won, one that kept service personnel imprisoned for the longest time in US history and their families suffering from uncertainty for years. Many of those incarcerated didn't live to see home again and those that did discovered their 'war' was far from over; their story had only just begun.

It's 1945 and the story of one family's war is about to begin. From the calm fields of Sweet Water, Alabama and the hell of Okinawa to the dawn of a nuclear age and its awful potential, Solly, Silace and Sky George bear witness to the brutality of war and the unleashing of a new and terrible weapon. The family upbringing of love and friendship bonds them tightly together but will it be enough on the long and uncertain road ahead.
- Into The Blue: The Sweet Water Tales, #2

The sleepy little town of Sweet Water, Alabama, provides the backdrop to this tale of adventure. Lincoln Beck's avid enthusiasm for his childhood comics of space exploration fuels and guides his dream of becoming an astronaut. Supported by his best friend, Rose, he embarks upon a path to try and fulfil his vision. From the idyllic summers of their youth, together, they commence a journey that will lead them into lifelong bonds with a dopey looking wandering Bassett hound, encountered one summer, and a squad of young hopefuls from the United States Air Force basic military training 'class of 58'. The journey is not without some rocky roads but true friendship and love light their path as Lincoln strives to accomplish the requirements needed to be considered for the Apollo space programme.

I'm a Liverpool born writer, with a story to tell, starting as a youngster writing songs with friends and not wanting to sing them. I started writing stories when I was a small boy with a rough book and a pen, making them up and penning them down, then as I got older I decided to actually do it. I've a good friend who motivates me, he tells me where I'm going right and wrong. I try to be thorough and my friend, Dan Wheatcroft, helps with that side of things, you may want to check out his work.
