DIV /div Jacob DeShazer found himself as one of the 80 men participating in the famous Doolittle Raid over Japan shortly after the bombing of Pearl Harbor. His story is not only about the bravery as a soldier and POW during war, but also about how powerful love and forgiveness can be when given to the enemy.

In April, 1942, President Roosevelt urged the military high command to prepare a devastating carrier-launch raid against the Japanese home islands. And the only person who dared to lead the mission was the best-known risk-taker in the U.S. Air Force, Lieutenant Colonel James H. Doolittle.

You can bury the past, but some things won't stay buried for long... When a young woman is found murdered in Patterson Park, Detective Cole Banks is shocked to recognize her as an old friend from high school. Getting a phone call from a concerned sheriff's deputy dealing with two murders that may be connected sends Cole and his partner heading toward his hometown. Despite the emotional strain of returning to a place he thought he'd left behind for good, Cole is determined to solve the case and bring the killer to justice. Confronting the past may come at a high price. Detective Cade Lawson knows that from experience, and as they dive into Cole's history, he worries about the impact it will have on his partner. The town is filled with memories and ghosts from Cole's past, and Cade refuses to let him face them alone. He'll be with Cole every step of the way, whether he wants it or not. A sixteen-year-old case seems to be the driving force behind the killings and as Cade and Cole dig deeper, they find themselves up against those who want the truth to stay hidden. With someone working against them, can they stop the killer before he strikes again?

Three years after their first adventure began, Bree, Devin, and Mikkel now enter a new world with the explorer Leif Erikson. Their first task: build a shelter to survive the winter. But danger lurks from within the shadows on the horizon of a life where everyone needs the courage to win. Can Mikkel conquer his enemies and find new purpose for his life? Will he keep his promise to Bree and Devin to take them home to Ireland? Will he keep his pledge of honor, even if it means death?

With the 100th anniversary of his birth on September 7, 2015 Dick Cole has long stood in the powerful spotlight of fame that has followed him since his B-25 was launched from a Navy carrier and flown toward Japan just four months after the attack on Pearl Harbor. In recognition the tremendous boost Doolittle’s Raid gave American morale, members of The Tokyo Doolittle Raiders were awarded the Congressional Gold Medal in May 2014. Doolittle’s Raid was only the opening act of Cole’s flying career during the war. When that mission was complete and all of the 16 aircraft had crash-landed in China, many of the survivors were assigned to combat units in Europe. Cole remained in India after their rescue and was assigned to Ferrying Command, flying the Hump of the Himalayas for a year in the world’s worst weather, with inadequate aircraft, few aids to navigation, and inaccurate maps. More than 600 aircraft with their crews were lost during this monumental effort to keep China in the war, but Cole survived and rotated home in 1943. He was home just a few months when he was recruited for the First Air Commandos and he returned to India to participate in Project 9, the aerial invasion of Burma.
