Shrink-2: Day of the Python
The war ended decades ago. For Charles Weatherby, it never did.
Charles "Charley" Weatherby survived the jungles of Vietnam, but survival came at a devastating cost. A highly trained Special Forces soldier hardened by combat, loss, and decisions no man should have to make, Charley returns home carrying an enemy far more dangerous than anything he encountered on the battlefield, an inner presence he calls the Python.
Years later, in the quiet landscape of Montana, Dr. Amanda Forbes has devoted her life to treating veterans struggling with the invisible wounds of war. After surviving her own near-death experience, however, Amanda discovers that something inside her has changed. A simple touch can reveal fragments of another person's memories, trauma, and darkest secrets.
When she meets Charles Weatherby, what she sees terrifies her.
At the same time, Police Chief Jake Adler is confronted with a disturbing series of deaths that bear unsettling similarities to an unsolved murder investigation from his past. As veterans begin disappearing and bodies accumulate, the lines between trauma, vengeance, justice, and madness become increasingly difficult to distinguish.
And somewhere within Charley's fractured mind, the Python is still giving orders.
SHRINK THE DAY OF THE PYTHON is a gripping psychological thriller exploring the enduring scars of the Vietnam War, PTSD, moral injury, near-death experiences, violence, faith, and the terrible consequences of a war that follows soldiers long after they return home.
For some veterans, coming home is only the beginning of the battle.
