A soldier returns from war. The battle within has just begun.
Son of a Gun is a gripping, emotionally charged novel that follows Ray "Wildcat" Reynolds, a Vietnam War veteran whose fight didn't end when he left the battlefield. From the harsh jungles of Southeast Asia to the sterile halls of VA hospitals in America, Ray's journey is one of survival, trauma, and the long road to healing.
Told with striking realism, raw emotion, and moments of dark humor, this novel captures the life of a soldier haunted by the past and struggling to adjust to a world that seems indifferent to his sacrifice. Ray's story is interwoven with themes of patriotism, betrayal, PTSD, and the powerful bond of family and love. As history repeats itself-from Vietnam to Afghanistan-Ray's voice resonates with veterans and civilians alike.
Based on real events and enriched by authentic military detail, Son of a Gun is both a personal odyssey and a universal portrait of war's lingering effects.
A must-read for fans of historical fiction, military novels, and emotionally resonant storytelling that honors those who serve.
