Major Amos Mead, USMC, an agent for the OSS based in London, is tasked with tracking Nazi spies. Through radio intercepts, Mead discovers Nazi Germans are trying to locate and steal a new and important breakthrough in United States radar technology. Ultimately, assigned to protect the radar device on its journey to war with the 1st Fighter Control Squadron, Mead assembles a most unlikely team of fellow spy catchers.

Unknown to Mead and his team, Nazi leaders Hermann Goering and Heinrich Himmler are in direct competition with each other to capture the device for their own paranoid purposes. Nazi master spy Otto Hauptmann works for one of them. Into the mix is thrown another spy – suspected to be a United States military officer, also on the Nazi espionage mission.

Thus, Mead and company are challenged from many directions. The chase begins in Berlin and London, passes through North and South America, and ends in the South Pacific, 300 miles from Fiji.

Along the way, an old love interest reappears, unusual alliances are formed, highest levels of government provide clandestine support, people are lost and found, and the culmination of the race twists in unsuspected ways.

BISAC: Fiction / Suspense

Suspense, intrigue, duty, revenge, and justice.

This is a story of failure and redemption along Arizona’s volatile border with Mexico. It is also a flying story about an aging pilot and some grand old airplanes of yesteryear.

After a lengthy aviation career as a Navy jet jockey, Pan Am captain, and charter pilot, Pete Maclaren suddenly quits flying and vows never to do so again. Yet here he is, flying an ancient aircraft at night through the Mexican mountains on a reckless rescue mission. Action spiced with camaraderie and romance follows.

Flight to Redemption by B.K. Bryans is a flying story about an ageing pilot and several classic old airplanes from yesteryear. It is also an adventure story where action is not the sole property of those who are young and strong. Here, two well-seasoned citizens wisecrack their way from crash to crisis and back in a story for the baby boomer generation.

Prepublication Review

“In Flight to Redemption, the author gives us a novel that realistically depicts the drug and alien smuggling problems that challenge our southwestern border country, but he also gives us lingering romance, bantering friendship, and an exciting conclusion. An ageing pilot, reluctantly accompanied by a small-town doc, fly a stolen airplane into Mexico on an ill-conceived rescue mission. This is a page-turner that is difficult to put down.”

Evans (DD-745), a United States Navy destroyer, and the Australian aircraft carrier HMAS Melbourne. This book is the only comprehensive source of original interviews and research along with official naval records that centers on the Evans crewmembers. The story of the collision that sank the bow half of the Evans is told by those who lived the nightmare on the morning of 3 June in 1969. It is a story of personal tragedy, survival and perseverance."

Author Paul Sherbo has added new information and exhibits in this beautiful hardcover edition, 6x9, navy blue cloth bound with gold lettering on the spine, wrapped with an attractive dust jacket.

Captain Paul Sherbo, USNR (ret.) of Lakewood, Colorado has written a book about the USS Frank E. Evans titled, Unsinkable Sailors: The fall and rise of the last crew of USS Frank E. Evans. Using official documents, it is the first comprehensive American review of the tragic 1969 collision at sea when an American Destroyer was cut in half by an Australian Aircraft Carrier A story of personal tragedy, survival and perseverance, the book describes in chilling detail the historical events that led up to the at-sea collision, the accounts of what was happening during the collision and the events in the aftermath, quoting entirely from naval records, interviews with surviving witnesses (both on the Evans and the Melbourne) and researching the Record of Proceedings transcripts investigating the accident.

Sailors in the doomed bow of USS Frank E. Evans (DD-754) woke to a ship rolling out of control, tons of seawater plunging in. Few escaped. Those sleeping in the after half of the ship rushed forward to their battle stations, some "running out of ship" in total darkness and into the water. Testimonies of surviving crew from the formal inquiries put you there, before, during, and after the collision. The courage and heroism of both crews evoke a genuine admiration for their bravery and spirit.

'Those '67 Blues is an enlightening action novel of U.S. naval aviators flying combat missions from an attack aircraft carrier on Yankee Station in the Tonkin Gulf during the Vietnam War.

This day-by-day account of flight operations, and the heroic actions of men penetrating the hostile skies of well-defended North Vietnam, spans a two-week period during the angry autumn of 1967. Feel the tension of flying a combat attack mission from the cockpit of an A-6 Intruder as, low and alone in the dark, you home in on a target. Understand the stomach-tightening dread as a surface-to-air missile tracks its target—you. Live the fear of being shot down, hunted, and held prisoner by the North Vietnamese. Experience the shivering adrenalin release that comes hours after a harrowing mission.

Meanwhile, the aviator’s wives and children back home live through fears and problems of their own, during a war that few people understand, and many despise.'

PRERELEASE REVIEWS:

‘I loved Those ’67 Blues, but it touched nerves that I thought were long buried. It has the authentic feel of someone who has actually flown combat missions in that war that I've found missing in most of the books I’ve read on the subject. The emotion conveys so well.’

Tony Tambini, Vietnam War A-4 / A-7 pilot.

'Those ’67 Blues is my kind of book. It has the accurate detail that satisfies the guy who’s “been there and done that” and intrigues the guy who wishes he could have. ‘Blues’ takes you through virtually every aspect of the carrier war in 1967 and does it so precisely you feel as if you are right there getting shot at. Those readers who flew into the flak, missile, and MiG mess in North Vietnam will relive the adrenalin rush that comes from dodging SAMs, and feel the heartbreak of seeing our guys going down in flames or swinging under a chute (if they’re lucky). To the curious readers, you can’t get any closer to being there than Those ’67 Blues.'

Staff Monkeys is not a typical military war journal; it is a chronological and humorous accounting of a former stockbroker's observations during his military deployments from April 2005 through September 2009. After being recalled to the Army, Peter Clark served in East Africa as well as numerous Middle East hot spots.

After his deployment to Africa, the fun and games were just beginning for Peter and over the next few years found himself in Iraq, Afghanistan, Jordan, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, and Kyrgyzstan. What the Army didn't know, or overlooked, was that Peter had a sharp sense of humor and wasn't afraid to use it.

War is a very serious business, yet strange and comical events do occur and US Army Staff Monkey, LTC Peter Clark, a modern day Bill Mauldin, tells about them in a most entertaining way.

Shadows of Heroes Author: D. M. Ulmer; Editorial Assistant: Doris Littlefield; Managing Editor: Dari Bradley; Executive Editor: Nelson O. Ottenhausen.

January 1949, early in the undeclared Cold War, the U.S. diesel-electric submarine Kokanee has illegally penetrated deep into Soviet Union waters of the White Sea and is detected by a pair of Russian destroyers. Depth charges fall on Kokanee and seem on the verge of tearing the besieged ship apart. A vindictive Russian captain is determined to eradicate the Americans.

Two U.S. intelligence agents have been put ashore, their mission: determine whether the Soviets are developing a nuclear powered submarine. Commander Terry Martin violated Kokanee's patrol orders and risks everything, including his career, against the long odds of acquiring information essential to the long term security of the United States.

Pat Householder (USSVI National CDR) writes about Shadows of Heroes

Shadows of Heroes is a Cold War Diesel Boat yarn set in Ivan’s back door, the Barents Sea in the winter of 1949. Telling the tale of fictitious smoke-boat USS Kokanee, an audacious ‘spook’ mission ashore and a tenacious Russian skipper, it twists and turns, goes deep and evades against the 1949 backdrop of emerging GUPPIES and the growing Soviet submarine threat.

Shadows of Heroes is Captain Don Ulmer’s second submarine tale of the Cold War. His first, Silent Battleground, featured a nuclear fast attack boat when the Cold War turned hot and the U.S.S.R attacked the U.S.Both are excellent and plausible tales of submariner can do spirit under the most difficult circumstances. Don served thirty two years in the submarine force, and skippered the USS Clamagore (SS 343) 1967-1969.

I recommend them both.

Count the Ways by D. M. Ulmer

"A grand romance in the classic sense. A love between a Naval Academy midshipman and an Iowa farm girl, a Korean War-era tragedy, and the search by a grandson for the mystery surrounding his grandparents love story.

"There is a modern mindset that says romances are for women. Any man who has ever been in love will identify with Bren Judge, enjoy the story, and even possibly shed a few tears."
