Journals from the Edge

By Bill E Boyum

Bill Boyum takes us back in a time machine to the suppressed culture of the 50's and 60's, when the effects of WWII veterans transitioning from war to family life are swept under the rug. The story explores Bill's battle of loyalty and love for a brilliant yet troubled older brother and a father whose heroic past disguises a violent streak.In this hardly typical baby boomer memoir, Bill follows his older brother's quest to find inner peace. While peace proves elusive, their passport stamps reveal a treasure map of isolated surf spots in Indonesia and old caravan routes in Afghanistan. Ultimately their ill-fated journeys coupled with a shade of insanity, lead to deciphering a mystery that climaxes on a remote island in the Philippines.
