Austin, Texas Nov 9, 2023 (Issuewire.com) - Authors Press is thrilled to announce the release of the republished edition of Jade Cross Book 2: Book 2: Before the Adventure (Jade Cross Trilogy) by accomplished author Harold W. Weist. This compelling novel is the second book of The Jade Cross Trilogy and is set to captivate readers once again with its gripping narrative, rich characters, and powerful themes.
Jade Cross Trilogy: Before the Adventure (Book 2) is an unmissable work of military fiction that delves into the gripping experiences of a war-hardened Marine who served two tours in Vietnam. A master interrogator and his loyal interpreter, Nguyen Ba, shared the tumultuous battlefield with courage and camaraderie, but the trials they faced during and after the war would test their mettle and unbreakable bond.
The story begins with an unforgettable incident during one miserable operation in the cold and driving monsoon rains of Vietnam. Tolbane, caught a thief in the act, a Marine Private attempting to steal merchandise from a mini PX situated in a con-ex box at a military enclave on the combat base at Chu Lai, Republic of Vietnam. Little did Tolbane know that this seemingly insignificant event would set in motion a chain of events that would shape the course of his life, even costing him his first true love.
After serving his country, Travis Tolbane settled in the quiet town of Mount Juliet, Tennessee. He found a home and a job as a mall security manager in nearby Nashville, aiming to put the horrors of war behind him. However, the past catches up with him when his sworn enemy the same thief from Vietnam, discovers that Tolbane is now the mall security manager at a place he engineers, along with his secretary and lover, Soapy, to wreak havoc. This leads to a series of calamities that affect not only Tolbane but also his friend, Detective Parnell, who served with him in Vietnam, ultimately resulting in kidnapping, murder, and the tragic loss of Tolbane's first love.
Author Harold Morrison brings his twenty years of military service and personal experiences to breathe life into this gripping narrative. He was born and raised in Findlay, Ohio, and joined the United States Marine Corps at the age of 17. His multiple assignments, including two tours in the Republic of Vietnam, add authenticity and depth to the story.
After his retirement in 1973, Morrison moved with his family to Florida City, Florida, where he continued to serve his community, both in security and as a teacher. He also gave back to fellow veterans through his active involvement with various Veterans Service Organizations. Morrison's commitment to supporting veterans and their families is evident in his efforts, such as the Field of Flags initiative.
After the re-published edition's successful debut at the recently concluded 2023 Manila International Book Fair, this new edition will now be unveiled at the 2023 Texas Book Festival, marking the re-published edition's second international book fair appearance.
For those seeking a gripping tale of honor, resilience, and the lasting impact of war, Jade Cross Trilogy: Before the Adventure (Book 2) is a must-read. The republished edition is set to reignite the passion of existing fans and captivate new readers with its compelling storytelling.
