Vietnam, 1968. A sergeant. Seven men. A ridge that doesn't care if they live or die. Sergeant Jack Calhoun has nineteen months in-country and two tours behind him. He knows how to keep men alive. He knows how to read terrain, clean a weapon, and walk into a kill zone without letting the fear take his hands. What he doesn't know is how to follow an order he knows will destroy his squad. When Bravo Company is ordered to assault a fortified ridge in the Central Highlands — against an enemy force three times the size that intelligence admits, with eight minutes of artillery support instead of...

Six men. Five days. One rule: the enemy never knows you were there. Vietnam, 1968. Staff Sergeant Dolan Mast leads a six-man Long Range Reconnaissance Patrol into the Dak Kram valley to observe an NVA supply cache and report what he finds. The intelligence estimate says thirty enemy soldiers. From the helicopter, Dolan counts smoke from three separate cooking fires, spaced at tactical intervals. The estimate is wrong by a factor of four. The mission is simple. Get in. Watch. Get out. Do not fire a shot. Do not leave a trace. Spend five days lying in the dirt forty meters from a hundred and ...

What if Jesus Himself walked you through the most misunderstood book in the Bible — and showed you it was never about the end of the world, but the unveiling of His face? After the manger. After the miracles. After the cross. There is a throne — and a Lamb standing in the center of it as though He had been slain, holding a scroll that no one in heaven or earth could open. Until He did. In Revelation with Jesus, the final book of Scripture is retold through the voice of Christ — the Alpha and Omega who dictated the vision, who walks among the seven lampstands, and who rides out of an ...

Vietnam, 1968. Carl Hayes is nineteen years old, from Macon, Georgia, and has thirteen months to survive. Assigned to an infantry squad in the Mekong Delta, Carl carries sixty-one pounds on his back and everything else where it doesn't show. A pebble from a dead friend's hand. Unsent letters in a plastic bag. A photograph of a woman he's not sure will wait. The quiet teachings of a sergeant who speaks in silences and keeps men alive by reading the ground the way other men read books. Over thirteen months with the 25th Infantry Division, Carl will learn what the jungle sounds like when it ...

November 1950. The Chosin Reservoir. The temperature is thirty below zero. The Chinese have sent 120,000 soldiers to kill them. The road south is seventy-eight miles long. Corporal Oren Lockhart counts everything. Rounds. Steps. Seconds between mortar impacts. Men still breathing after a firefight. He has been counting since Okinawa, since a hillside covered in bodies taught him that numbers are easier than feelings. For seven years, the counting has kept him alive. It has also kept him empty. Then a nineteen-year-old kid from Omaha named Fisk starts talking about a girl. He talks about her...

The intelligence said platoon. The jungle said more. Vietnam, 1967. Captain Dan Decker and eleven Special Forces soldiers walk eighteen kilometers into triple-canopy jungle to ambush an NVA supply column on the Ho Chi Minh Trail. The mission brief says platoon-size element. A Montagnard elder who has survived three wars says the number is higher. The FOB says proceed as planned. The ambush works. The extraction doesn't. Cut off from radio contact, carrying a wounded man through terrain that wants to kill them, hunted by a tracking element that reads the jungle better than they do, Decker's ...

Vietnam, 1968. A Navy SEAL sniper. A kill list with his name on it. And a traitor inside his own chain of command. Ezra "Ghost" Cain can see everything through his rifle scope — the target's face, the child in the path, the wife who will scream. What he can't see is who is feeding his missions to the enemy. When his mentor is killed in a mortar attack that was meant to look like combat — but wasn't — Ghost is sent deep into the U Minh Forest on a mission to eliminate a Viet Cong shadow commander. His spotter is the best in the Teams. His intelligence comes from a woman who has buried ...

Daniel arrives at Bien Hoa with sixty-two pounds of gear and no understanding of what waits for him. He is assigned to a Huey helicopter crew — Chalk One — under a pilot who communicates in three taps on the cyclic and says almost nothing else. His crew chief, Lou, teaches him the only rule that matters: The gun wants to fire. You just let it. Over twelve months, Daniel flies into landing zones where the...

In 1978, a VA hospital clerk named Thomas Crane made a discovery that would change everything. While processing the personal effects of James "Rabbit" Morrison—a Vietnam veteran who had died alone in Richmond's VA hospital—Crane found something extraordinary: forty-seven letters that had been written but never sent. These weren't ordinary letters. Hidden in Morrison's footlocker were confessions that five soldiers from Firebase Charlie had carried in secret for a decade. Letters to fiancées explaining why gentle farm boys had become efficient killers. Letters to parents confessing to ...

November 1967. Central Highlands, Vietnam. Six men walk into the jungle on a routine patrol. None of them will come back the same. Sergeant Hargrove carries the weight of a brother who came home in a box. Jefferson walks point, running from a secret he's never told anyone.

February 1968. A helicopter goes down over the Vietnamese jungle. Sergeant Marcus Coleman survives the crash, the fire, and the capture. He does not survive it unchanged. They take his weapon. They take his dog tags. They take the photograph of his three-year-old daughter from his wallet and put it in a stranger's pocket. For five years, Marcus endures bamboo cages, concrete cells, and the ropes of the Hanoi Hilton. He is starved, beaten, and ordered to read propaganda into a microphone. He refuses. They break him. He refuses again. The only thing that keeps him alive is a decision he makes...

Kontum Province, November 1967. Eleven Americans. Thirty-two Montagnard strikers. One hundred and twenty-eight square kilometers of jungle. No reinforcements coming. Sergeant Caulfield runs a Special Forces camp on the Cambodian border — what the Army calls an economy-of-force mission: hold the ground with the minimum, accept the risk. His area of responsibility is a red rectangle on acetate. Inside it, an NVA regiment is moving. When his Kit Carson scout — a former North Vietnamese soldier whose defection the Montagnard tribesmen will never forgive — maps a supply network feeding ...

A DEVOTIONAL EXPERIENCE UNLIKE ANY OTHER From the tree by the water in Psalm 1 to the final hallelujah of Psalm 150...

She was sold into sexual slavery at age seven. By thirty-five, she commanded 80,000 pirates and negotiated with empires as an equal. In 1801, Shi Yang was property—a flower boat prostitute in Canton with no future and no hope. By 1810, she was Zheng Yi Sao, the Pirate Queen, commander of the largest criminal fleet in history. This is the true story of how one woman transformed herself from victim to victor, building an empire on the South China Sea that neither the Chinese government nor European powers could destroy. Starting with nothing but intelligence and ruthless pragmatism, Shi ...
