This book is based on the Once A Soldier trilogy by James Robert Stewart. In those novels, James describes the childhood of Carl Edward Sanders, his service in Vietnam, and his Return Home. Home means he returns to the arms of his wife, Cheryl, and figuratively to the American values of Faith, Family, and Country. His life was not easy. He was scarred by the savages of war. He was separated from his wife after terrifying nightmares engulfed him. He fought drug runners in Peru and pirates in Africa. He was almost stabbed to death in Egypt just as his dream of redemption was about to be fulfilled. Carl survives the wars and battles, but his mind is a tangled, bizarre maze of death, destruction, and confusion, intertwined with a severe lack of direction. The one thing he knows is his love for his wife and son. They brought him back to life when he thought himself dead. They are the reason he continues the struggle of Life. ... His search will take him around the world again. The angels in Heaven must watch over him, if he is to find his clues and his goals. His family is his anchor in the storm his soul must face.
