Description
Two weeks before his departure to Vietnam, Second Lieutenant Martin Shadows's father encourages him to visit his Lakota Sioux grandfather in Montana, a man he has seen only once as a boy. When Grandfather Two Shadows begins telling him of his visions concerning Martin's upcoming tour of duty in Vietnam, the young lieutenant is non-plussed by the old man's revelations. As a newly commissioned U.S. Army Officer, he finds tales of himself leaping from trees to slay his enemies with a knife and riding the fiery breath of a great bird into the mountains are a bit beyond the pale-if not totally bizarre. Only when these predictions begin coming to pass, does Martin wish he had listened more closely.

Person
Rick DeStefanis lives in northern Mississippi with his wife, Janet, five cats and a male yellow lab named Blondie. Although many of his novels cross genre lines that include military fiction, southern fiction and more, he utilizes his military expertise to produce the Vietnam War Series. Melody Hill (Book #1) is the prequel to his award-winning novel The Gomorrah Principle, both of which draw from his experiences as a paratrooper with the 82nd Airborne Division from 1970 to 1972.
