Based on the memoirs of a Pearl Harbor survivor. Letters from two pen pals take the reader on a journey into the past, a past where nightmares came true, and when hatred reigned.
Encountering danger, romance, heartache and tragedy, Catherine Merit strives to fit into a world filled with prejudice, hatred and violence where she is forced to kill a man in order to save herself. Third book of the Indignities Series.
People stories that keep you on a roll. "Get fat if you can," is my favorite quote from the boys that fought the not too civil, Civil War.

Educated in the Engineering School at The University of Washington, then side trips to the Army's Ranger and Airborne Schools... then a bit of time (1967&68) in Vietnam's war as a grunt with the storied 173rd Airborne Brigade, I found sanctuary in construction and writing.
