Blue Shadows (Paperback)

Paperback. The surgeon saves lives but knows when to pull the triggerAfter years of war, loss, and covert service, Dr. Wyatt Barton, a retired CIA operative, Army Ranger and now civilian surgeon, wants only a peaceful surgical career and a future with lovely Gentri Lawrence. But this all changes when he reluctantly accepts a call to leave retirement and participate in one last Black Ops mission. Meanwhile, a charming and well-respected U.S. Defense firm executive hides in plain sight and secretly plots high-tech terror attacks in the sleepy, self-absorbed United States. The overseas mission is compromised and during the battle, the terrorist leader's son is killed, and Wyatt is now targeted for assassination by the embedded terrorist organization.Dr. Barton suffers injuries during the battle; he experiences a Near Death Experience and sees the light of powerful love. When he regains consciousness and life, he remembers the message he received from the light: He will receive a gift, but only if he heeds the specific moral warning that comes with it: No more killing. Although his civilian surgical career and his relationship with his lover are threatened by his experience and his ostensibly worsened PTSD, he eventually realizes this gift is not just normal nightmares from PTSD, but in fact, clairvoyance, and it may somehow allow him to eliminate the evil terrorist and this dangerous organization.He doesn't want to be a vigilante, but he struggles with how to use this new gift to eliminate the terrorist threat and protect the woman he loves while desperately trying to preserve his soul by honoring the moral obligation the gift demands of him when killing would by easy -and mercy could cost everything.This is a military thriller filled with realistic medical suspense, bolstered by patriotism, love between a man and a woman, and faith in God. It is written for adults, men and women, ages twenty-one and older. While it is military based and about fighting terrorism, it is not written for just military veterans, but clearly for everyone who values patriotism, service to country, self-sacrifice, love and faith in God.It is the first work in the Wyatt Barton and Ollie series.
