Tin Soldiers
Combat veteran Wat Tyler resumes his job as a New York crime reporter, but can’t escape the shadow of Vietnam – or allegations of cowardice. His first newspaper assignment reveals a high-level cover-up following the fatal shootings by National Guardsmen of three civilians at an anti-war protest. Powerful interests are determined to stop Tyler’s investigation at any cost – especially when he links the campus homicides to the murder of three scientists accused of using Vietnam veterans as lab rats. As Tyler and criminal attorney JoBeth Medlock delve deeper into the paranoid psyche of Nixon’s America, it becomes clear that strings are being pulled in places they would never have imagined. Inspired by real events at Kent State University, Ohio in May 1970, this fast-paced and immersive crime novel powerfully evokes America during the Vietnam War period of US history.

His problems mount when a secretive figure he last saw deep in Viet Cong territory arrives in town…

Kicking the Bucket
Kicking the Bucket has two definitions. It’s a vulgar euphemism for dropping dead, or a literal description of your life support system being involuntarily dispensed with on the gallows, i.e., by kicking away the bucket you may be standing on with the rope around your neck, or by voluntarily removing yourself from the felicitations and care of your family, the NHS, ‘and Social Services. Charles Fenemore, faced with his inevitable decline into senility like most of his friends, chose the latter with unforeseen outcomes. Leaving his ultimate fate to chance and circumstance, he buys an old boat and sails into ‘the setting sun’, informing no-one of his intentions except his son who reluctantly aids his plans, and arousing the interest of a washed-up journalist who senses an ulterior motive behind his escapade. Subsequent events cause him to query his own feelings and those of his family left behind.

Thank You and OK!
David Chadwick, a Texas-raised wanderer, college dropout, bumbling social activist, and hobbyhorse musician, began his study under Shunryu Suzuki Roshi in 1966. In 1988 Chadwick flew to Japan to begin a four-year period of voluntary exile and remedial Zen education. In Thank You and OK! he recounts his experiences both inside and beyond the monastery walls and offers insightful portraits of the characters he knew in that world—the bickering monks, the patient abbot, the trotting housewives, the ominous insects, the bewildered bureaucrats, and the frustrating English-language students—as they worked inexorably toward initiating him into the mysterious ways of Japan. Whether you're interested in Japan, Buddhism, or exotic travel writing, this book is great fun. To learn more about the author, David Chadwick, visit www.cuke.com.
