A New York Times Bestselling Author, An Indie Next Pick -- At seventeen, Henry Childs is nearly consumed by a love affair. But when young Mercy's disapproving father threatens his life, Henry runs as far as he can. Descended from a long line of soldiers, he enlists in the marines and arrives in Korea on the eve of the battle of the Chosin Reservoir -- the turning point of the war -- completely unprepared. But the challenges he meets upon his return home, scarred and haunted, are greater by far.
