Heart of Darkness (Broken Arrow, #1) / Broken Arrow (ePub)

For every death on the battlefield, sixteen Veterans are returning home with injuries. Most injuries are not physically visible.

This book is a work of fiction around a real issue; Veteran Mental Health and undiagnosed PTSD, which affects the Veterans, their families and the community. The author hopes this book finds Veterans who may be silently suffering and be otherwise unaware. The topics and issues within these pages are a mosaic of veterans experiences all rolled into one. There is help out there, there is no need to suffer in silence

One veteran's journey through the darkness after he is injured on the battlefield. The CIA sent in the best Navy SEAL team on a critical intel mission in Afghanistan, 2010. Ralph Arnold is injured, locked inside his fragmented memory is the key to unravelling the time-critical mission details. In his mind are the fragments of himself, clinging together, trying to be whole again.

Ralph's journey and struggle is built on a collection of veteran accounts, told here within the fabric of fiction. Ralph's journey could be in some degree, any veterans story the world over. The number of veterans returning home with injuries is on the rise at an unhealthy rate. Some injuries visible, some hiding in the shadows of their mind. May all veterans have victory over their enemy within, and find peace.

'On the battlefield, the military pledges to leave no soldier behind. As a nation, let it be our pledge that when they return home, we leave no veteran behind.'
Dan Lipinski

'I am left with basically nothing. Too trapped in a war to be at peace, too damaged to be at war.'
Army Veteran Daniel Somers
