Book Description
At eight-hundred pages in length, Trilogy is the complete story of the Indomitable Patriot from 1940 to 1998. Trilogy tells the story of the men and women of the OSS and CIA, and the special operations military who fought the battles of World War Two, Korea and Vietnam. I created this compelling, poignant story along with many of the battles from wartime records and actual historical facts, in a fictional setting. While the primary characters in the book are fictitious, I based their lives and motivations upon the lives of actual people. The book features a number of real people from the special operations community, portraying themselves and their accomplishments. Trilogy is a unique simultaneous look at the air, ground and undersea war in the Pacific theater during World War Two, the Korean War and early years of Vietnam. The feats described by the fictitious USS Great White came out of the actual patrol logs of several WWII era submarine patrols. Prepare yourself for identifying with the characters in the book, cheering their successes and crying over their shortcomings. Trilogy is a spy story, a love story, a war story - a book you will not put down - from the Introduction to the Epilogue. In reading Trilogy, I guarantee you will see yourself....

Book Description
The war is over and the United States is preparing for espionage with it's former ally, the Russians, when a mission comes up and it's assigned to Pinky. President Truman becomes enraged when he discovers Hitler may have escaped to Argentina, secreted aboard U-977. Truman enlists former agents of the OSS in an effort to resolve the rumors. Unlike a James Bond type fantasy thriller, the primary character, former OSS special agent Evelyn "Pinky" Nash creates a Margaretha Geertruida MacLeod (AKA Mata Hari) reality. Pinky and former OSS German double agent Friederich Schickendantz bond in a pseudo-marriage. They overtly honeymoon in Argentina while covertly investigate the claim. Further complicating their extreme deep-cover operation, they are thousands of miles from assistance and must rely upon third-party communications with the USA. In executing the mission, Pinky develops an intimate relationship with her partner. Not until the last page will you know if the mission succeeds, the characters reconnect or have traveled the path of self-destruction.

Book Description
During the course of his military career, Bud Day won every available combat medal, escaped death on no less than seven occasions, and spent 67 months as a POW in the infamous Hanoi Hilton, along with John McCain. Despite sustained torture, Day would not break. He became a hero to POWs everywhere -- a man who fought without pause, not a prisoner of war, but a prisoner at war. Upon his return, passed over for promotion to Brigadier General, Day retired. But years later, with his children grown and a lifetime of service to his country behind him, he would engage in another battle, this one against an opponent he never had expected: his own country. On his side would be the hundreds of thousands of veterans who had fought for America only to be betrayed. And what would happen next would make Bud Day an even greater legend.

Book Description
May, 1942. General Wainwright has just surrendered the Philippines. Wendell Fertig, a Corps of Engineers Lieutenant Colonel, refuses to comply and flees into the mountains of Mindanao. Fertig is soon joined by dozens of former Philippino Army scouts who encourage him to form a guerrilla Army. Over the next few months Fertig is joined by several other displaced American soldiers, one of whom builds a small, makeshift transmitter and establishes contact with the Navy. General MacArthur denounces Fertig, going on record claiming it's impossible for a guerrilla movement in the Philippines to succeed. The O.S.S. decides to take a chance and covertly supplies Fertig by submarine. Once he receives the tools to wage war, his achievements become legendary. By the time MacArthur returns to the Philippines in 1944 he is met on the beach at Leyte by a force of over twenty thousand of Fertig's guerrilla Army. This fictional accounting is based upon the actual military records and reports of one man's impossible achievements against overwhelming odds; against an enemy who outnumbered him a hundred to one. Wendell Fertig, a civil engineer and untrained amateur in the ways of war, defied the predictions of the experts and brought the Japanese Army to its knees. Enjoy this first installment in the new 'Behind The Lines' series of combat thrillers based upon historical records.

Book Description
The New York Times bestselling author of Fly Girls shares the riveting story of an unsung World War II hero who saved countless American lives in the Philippines. When Florence Finch died at the age of 101, few of her Ithaca, NY neighbors knew that this unassuming Filipina native was a Presidential Medal of Freedom recipient, whose courage and sacrifice were unsurpassed in the Pacific War against Japan. Long accustomed to keeping her secrets close in service of the Allies, she waited fifty years to reveal the story of those dramatic and harrowing days to her own children. Florence was an unlikely warrior. She relied on her own intelligence and fortitude to survive on her own from the age of seven, facing bigotry as a mixed-race mestiza with the dual heritage of her American serviceman father and Filipina mother. As the war drew ever closer to the Philippines, Florence fell in love with a dashing American naval intelligence agent, Charles "Bing" Smith. In the wake of Bing's sudden death in battle, Florence transformed from a mild-mannered young wife into a fervent resistance fighter. She conceived a bold plan to divert tons of precious fuel from the Japanese army, which was then sold on the black market to provide desperately needed medicine and food for hundreds of American POWs. In constant peril of arrest and execution, Florence fought to save others, even as the Japanese police closed in. With a wealth of original sources including taped interviews, personal journals, and unpublished memoirs, The Indomitable Florence Finch unfolds against the Bataan Death March, the fall of Corregidor, and the daily struggle to survive a brutal occupying force. Award-winning military historian and former Congressman Robert J. Mrazek brings to light this long-hidden American patriot. The Indomitable Florence Finch is the story of the transcendent bravery of a woman who belongs in America's pantheon of war heroes.
