Never Tell

By Larry Sydow

Book Overview

Jerry Miller believes the most horrible experiences of his life are now far behind him. He's spent forty years trying to escape the reach of the past-and believes he's finally succeeded. Until it all goes wrong again. Jerry is out for his midday walk when he suddenly spies a squad of Viet Cong in the distance, all carrying AK-47 rifles. Jerry's body instinctively ducks before his brain reminds him that this is just a flashback. Despite its illusory nature, though, Jerry is terrified by the hallucination. It brings back memories he would rather keep buried. In an attempt to help her husband cope, Jerry's wife reaches out to his old Vietnam-era soldier buddies. In doing so, she drags up a secret that eighty-three men have promised to take to their graves. Jerry's group, Bravo Company, carried out a dangerous mission over the course of ten days in 1971. Their efforts remained a closely kept secret for the ensuing four decades. As Jerry thinks back on those ten deadly days, he must confront the choices he made as Bravo Company's leader. These decisions had major ramifications-and they're still being felt by every one of his soldiers.
