Most of the written and visual media have done a commendable job of exploring the logistical blunders and other revealing aspects of the war itself; however, very few of them have givenVietnam the same empathic human touch as “Saving Private Ryan” so famously did for World War II.Throughout the pages of Vietnam: No Regrets, author and Vietnam veteran J. Richard Watkins steps directly in the gap and fills that void in standout fashion. A heart-wrenching memoir recounted in an unfiltered, no-holds-barred manner, Vietnam: No Regrets takes the reader straight into the heart of one of the most controversial extended episodes in our nation’s history, painting the gruesome conflict in a graphic, vivid light – undeniably real and raw.Kendra Carroll, Apex ReviewsThanks for the copy of your book. it will be a very special addition to my library. Needle to say, I understand the emotions you experienced, the effort to servive, and the need to leave some of one's combat time behind when returning home. You also captured the essence of the Brotherhood of the Close Fight very well. Thanks-- for your service and I will highly recommend your book for I couldn't put it down.Gen. David Petraeus,Commander Multi National Command Iraq_______________________________________This is your opportunity to share this once in a lifetime adventure.

    Mayhem. A madcap lady vicar. Have you met The Reverend Annabelle Dixon? Annabelle is the charming, slightly gauche, very tall, thirty-something vicar of St. Mary’s Church located in the picturesque village of Upton St. Mary in Cornwall, England. She is beloved by her parishioners for dispensing good advice and godly wisdom with humor and charm while zipping her Mini Cooper around the country lanes and attempting to build a relationship with her church cat, Biscuit. As Annabelle faithfully ministers her quaint parish, trouble follows her. Instead of tea and cakes, she is regularly served a heaping plate of murder and a fine helping of handsome Inspector Mike Nicholls. This digital box set contains the first four mysteries in this bestselling series: Death at the Café: With a nun accused of murder, and armed only with a note, a disappearing dart, vague hints, and a love of cake, Annabelle must gather the clues, pacify a detective, and find the real perpetrator before both she and her friend wind up in jail. Murder at the Mansion: Recently appointed to her rural church position, trouble arises when she faithfully welcomes a new resident to her quaint parish and finds herself in the midst of a deadly murder case and a village full of gossip. Body in the Woods: When a young boy is running home through the woods, he finds a bone: a forearm to be precise; a human forearm. This discovery sets in motion the reopening of a cold case that Reverend Annabelle Dixon, it seems, simply can’t leave alone. Grave in the Garage: When her car breaks down, Annabelle stumbles upon a gruesome scene at the Mildred’s Garage. The tenacious vicar is soon embroiled in yet another mystery along with the stalward, logical Inspector Mike Nicholls. Thank goodness for the puppy!

    Thistlethwaite and the Magpie: "Super early review on Mrs. Thistlethwaite book from beta reader, Lisa Hudson: AN ABSOLUTE DELIGHT!! I've been a fan of J.B. Hawker's fantastic writing for sometime. This book is outstanding!! Her ability to use elderly characters - Matilda Thistlewaite and Slim Bottoms - is brilliant!! These characters (as well as all the other characters) are painted so vividly that you feel as though you would recognize them if you met them in your local church, grocery store, or neighborhood. The story is set in a small town and reflects the devastation and fear brought by the disappearance of a young teenaged girl and the evidence of the return of a serial killer. The author seamlessly weaves the story and has you wanting to read the entire book in one sitting. It's about friendships, families, First Responders, and the criminal element. There are a myriad of surprises scattered all throughout this book. Read it. You'll be so glad you did!! " Fans of Miss Seeton and Mrs. Pollifax will welcome the indomitable Mrs. Thistlethwaite. Like these beloved, mature characters, at the ripe old age of eighty-five Mrs. T. is ready for whatever comes her way. When a beautiful and talented teenage ballet student disappears, rumors fly in the charming village of Tillamook, Oregon. Did she run away to the big city, or is she the latest victim of the notorious serial killer preying upon lonely young women along the coastal highways? Beguiling octogenarian, retired school teacher, Tillie Thistlethwaite, applies her exceptionally sharp mental skills and no-nonsense practicality to the mystery. Petite Mrs. T. and her tall gentleman friend, Slim, reject both theories and launch their own investigation. Will the amateur sleuthing of this unlikely and adorable pair succeed where the police fail, or will they fall victim to foul play?
