Can war be stopped before it begins? A CIA pilot and his team risk everything to free military captives from a Hanoi prison and prevent an undercover agent from being revealed. But even the best plans can go awry... Taking the fight to the sea, the Americans attempt to cut off the weapons and supplies flowing to the Viet Cong. Colonel Lansdale's paramilitary teams are up to their old tricks executing multiple raids and demoralizing the North. With US-made weapons and American advisors to guide it, the South Vietnamese think they are invincible. Then comes Ap Bac... A pivotable battle changes the growing conflict in Vietnam and forces President Kennedy to rethink America's involvement. A prophetic warning, it may be the last exit before an all-out war with US boots on the ground. Like all the novels in the Airmen Series, The Uncivil War is full of action and suspense while being based on historical events and real people.

By the summer of 1973, US combat troops have withdrawn leaving only a handful of American advisors and CIA operatives to assist South Vietnam's struggle for survival. The country's fate hangs by a thread as a massive Communist invasion from the North looms. Abandoned by America, South Vietnam's dispirited generals cede the frontier, awaiting attack against the cities and the Mekong Delta's rice fields. Unwilling to desert their allies, weathered CIA veterans Rene Granier and Tom Coyle hatch an audacious plan - assemble several teams of elite operatives to launch audacious strikes to shatter Communist momentum and demoralize the NVA troops. If their daring raids can shock Northern confidence and rekindle ARVN resistance, Saigon may still survive the coming onslaught. But failure to disrupt the Communist tide will ensure Vietnam's swift fall to a red dawn. Outgunned, Granier and Coyle gamble everything on breaking the siege mentality before Saigon is swallowed by Vietnam's gathering twilight of war. Based on historical events and real people, Twilight of War is Book 20 in the Airmen Series. Continue the journey, learn the truth, and read Twilight of War

A war and a president that changed America forever... Newly elected President John F. Kennedy is faced with numerous global events spiraling out of control - aggressive communist expansion, the nuclear arms race, the descending iron curtain, a clandestine invasion of Cuba, and, of course, Vietnam teetering on civil war. Kennedy, a strong believer in espionage and paramilitary operations, is determined to minimize American military involvement whenever possible. He recruits America's best and brightest as his advisors, then tasks the CIA, American military advisors, and Special Operation elements with stopping wars before they can begin. It was a great plan... if only it had worked. Kennedy's War is the story of America's last chance to end the Vietnam conflict before all-out civil war erupts. Like all the books in the Airmen series, it is full of intrigue, action, and suspense. It's a tale of incredible bravery, deception, and betrayal. No one is innocent. As you will soon read, many carry the blame for the events that led to the Vietnam War.

One bullet could start a war or prevent it. His bullet... Granier is CIA. A sniper and the leader of an elite paramilitary team stationed in Saigon. Nothing will stop him from completing his mission - blocking the Viet Minh rebels from overrunning the South. Ambush, sabotage, and assassination are part of his bag of dirty tricks. But anything is allowed as long as they don't get caught. He has no remorse. Remorse is for others. Before American soldiers landed in South Vietnam, the CIA fought a covert war against the communists. They were committed to stopping communist expansion and reuniting Vietnam under the leadership of the South. They were patriots fighting on behalf of America and the free world. But the more the CIA tried to control the unfolding events and the notorious family of South Vietnam's President Diem, the more chaos and corruption ensued. Based on historical events and real people, The Willful Slaughter of Hope is the story of the CIA's early years in Vietnam and Laos. Like all the novels in the Airmen Series, it's full of action and suspense. It's a cautionary tale of missed opportunities, tragic betrayal, and incredible courage.
