The Lucas Legacy

By Brian Wallace

A secret that could have prevented the atomic bomb. A ghost who waited forty years to tell it. A special child who was the only one who could hear him.

In 1981, the quiet, ordered world of the Grayson family is shattered when their non-verbal, autistic son, Luke, begins to draw WWII fighter planes with impossible accuracy and whisper clues from a life he never lived. The memories belong to James Harrison, a brilliant pilot shot down in 1945 while protecting a dangerous truth: a strategic insight that could have rewritten the end of the war.

To heal their son, the Graysons must partner with a cynical journalist to unravel a decades-old military conspiracy, a journey that will take them from forgotten archives to a secret hearing in the halls of Congress. There, they must stake everything on the testimony of their son, forcing the most powerful men in the world to confront a truth delivered by the quietest, most marginalized voice.

But the legacy of their discovery is greater than they could ever imagine. As the Cold War rages, the ghost's forgotten wisdom finds its way to the White House, influencing the very strategy that will peacefully bring down the Berlin Wall.

Spanning from the battlefields of the Pacific to the fall of the Soviet Union, and ending with a final, poignant mystery in the present day, The Lucas Legacy is a story about the echoes of history, the courage of the forgotten, and the profound, world-changing power of a child who the world saw as broken, but who was, in fact, the key to everything.
