"A sudden onslaught of Alzheimer’s disease intrudes on the ever-exciting, compatible marriage of Adam and Eve Alexander. Forty years prior, they met on a campus at a local college and found they were both interested in pursuing the same profession. Their instant physical attraction and empathy towards one another swiftly grew into intense love. Both had grown up believing they were orphans, and their need to belong caused them to cleave to one another. Their story shifts back and forth between the United States and the Grecian Island of Crete. Emergence of lost family members, many mysterious happenings, and an amazing, miraculous discovery bring their story to a startling conclusion."

The Great Hour Struck

Posted in Friend's Books

Looks like Gary is already busy on Part 2.  This book can be purchased at Amazon.com

"As the inferno of World War II engulfs 101st Airborne Division paratrooper Lieutenant Sam Henry, the scholar-turned-soldier is thrust on a collision course with the embodiment of beauty-and the horrors of combat. Training and awaiting D-Day in England, Sam's can-do Yank confidence suffers the harsh realities of a war-weary nation under siege as well as a tyrannical platoon leader. His fascination with the beautiful British schoolteacher, Maggie Elliott, sustains his hopes and softens the bite of military life but cannot erase the dread of Sam's upcoming mission. When that fateful day arrives, June 6, 1944, Sam embarks on one of the most dangerous missions of the war. But the massive parachute night drop behind Hitler's Atlantic Wall disintegrates into pockets of fractured units and individuals locked in kill-or-be-killed close combat chaos, testing Sam's optimistic intellectualism to the breaking point. His personal mission becomes nothing more than getting his beloved men out-alive. Yet, with the D-Day airborne objectives nearly secured, an unforeseen clash against a Russian Front hardened storm trooper, Helmut Behr, threatens to destroy Sam's sanity-and his life. "Evocative and haunting. Varner's action scenes are fantastic he really brought me into D-Day." -Jefferson Scott, author of the Operation Firebrand series "
