Can you hear that sound? It’s the sound of freedom! Let freedom ring.
Gunnery Sergeant Brendan Shoemaker, returns home from serving time in Afghanistan worried, wondering how life will be now after the war. While Brendon is adjusting to a normal civilian lifestyle, the town is celebrating the Fourth of July with enthusiasm. The day is full of cheerful people with plenty of fireworks and activities, but Brendan decides to skip the firework display, knowing that loud sounds and bright lights isn’t the best combination for someone who suffers from PTSD.
Things quickly escalates as an explosion changes everything. In the chaos of the blast, during the fireworks display, Brendan’s 3-year-old niece, Grace, has been kidnapped. Will Brendan be able to find Grace before it’s too late? Or will he let the memories that plague his mind win? The clock is ticking, and Brendan is running out of time. To save his niece, Brendan will have to go to war again, but he’ll have to battle more than just her kidnapper. Is Brendan prepared to go to war with himself?
Lives Interrupted - Frank Zubek
Tom is a vet struggling with PTSD and is running an errand for his wife. Jake, who has recently lost his job, is out for a ride on his noisy motorcycle with his girlfriend Gen. They all meet at a red light and then, sadly, things escalate from there.
Aftershock - Rita Delude
The aftershocks of war rattle the universe long after soldiers return home. Those who fight, feel the fear, witness the carnage, and suffer the wounds must straddle the broken ground left by the aftershocks. But they are not alone. Those left behind at home are never far from the devastation. They agonize to see their loved ones in pain. They pick up the pieces. They try to help and sometimes fail. War is the proverbial hell, but for Jordan O’Dell and Stella Williams, the aftershocks are in some ways worse than the war itself.
