Mornin' Bill: About the Book

An average guy with an extraordinary past has been working for several years for an organization the media has romanticized and chastised at the same time since its inception. Legendary in the world, and yet a complete mystery to most, he works for the CIA. He keeps the books for the CIA, not the entire CIA, of course, just one small part of the operation. His life has been mostly uneventful since his time spent in the Vietnam War, a place and deeds he has put far in the back of his mind. One day, however, that all changes, and it changes because "The Company" wants it to change. He has no idea that their needs will bring him into a completely new life as well as provide him the opportunity to relive his past. If all goes well, he decides to "go for it," and he is up for the task, his new job at the CIA will be short-lived, but extremely intense. His new life, if he survives, will continue when, and if, he returns. He has many moments of hesitation about the job to be done and about his new life. In their own way, each impacts him at the very heart of his being, each one touching places within him, those places he had forgotten about or had been numbed by the bludgeoning of his soul. He is, in fact, living life just where he has always liked to be but has not been for a long time: on the edge.
