A cheeky tale of campus folly! Things aren’t going well for James Duffy. The beleaguered communications director of Sir Richard Middling University is struggling to do the right thing while navigating the quirks and minefields of campus politics. The odds are against him and the challenges keep piling up: an ambitious polytechnical college is scheming to take over Sir Middling U; a furore erupts over a bigoted guest speaker; and activists want to tear down a statue of the university’s controversial namesake. While striving to defuse the various crises, Duffy encounters a cast of eccentric characters: a scholarly burlesque queen; an author of dreadful poetry; a hobby-horse-riding free-speech advocate; and a diaper-wearing basset hound. As things go from bad to worse, Duffy's flagging spirits are lifted—and his moral compass righted—by the girl of his dreams, the wise and loyal Sophie Munn.

When Jeanette Bleakley accepts an invitation to join an all-male Corps of Cadets at Virginia Tech in 1973, she doesn't realize that her career in Air Force Intelligence will lead to a real-world operation called Guardian Angel that rescues dozens of girls kidnapped from Central America who are turned into sex slaves across the US. Follow Jeanette's adventures as she survives the challenges of a military rat system, a survival school with its own POW camp, and a real-world deployment as the Joint Task Force executes its mission with the code words "Come to Poppa." During this adventure of historical fiction, Jeanette has her own faith adventure as she grows spiritually and meets the recently beatified Fr. Stanley Rother, a martyr for his faith. Readers who wish to get involved in fighting human trafficking will join forces with the book's extensive nonprofit resource list to fight this terrible crime.
