Description

This novel could best be described as historical fiction since it is based on actual events that the author experienced firsthand during the year 1950 and uses both real and fictional characters as well as real and fictional events. Following the second war to end all wars, a group of young men stationed at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, find themselves in a virtual land of enchantment. Though not exactly a murder mystery, the book begins with the investigation of the murders of two young boys that takes place at a now-defunct military base, Camp Catlin, on the island of Oahu. The narrative follows the exploits of these young marines, who eventually get caught up in an unexpected war in an unexpected place. There is mystery, romance, humor, camaraderie, deceit, betrayal, dilemma, death, hardship, and pain as the book shifts from part one in the tropical splendorous “heaven” of Hawaii to part two, in the frozen “hell” of war-torn South and North Korea. If you enjoy adventure filled with twists and turns, this is the book for you.
