Cayde: A Wolf Jackson Story - Paperback

by Jordan Flowers (Author)

Gunnery Sergeant Elijah Thompson Cayde, "Cayde" for short, has spent the last nine years running from the pain of his past. He couldn't outrun it while he was in the service overseas, nor has he been able to outrun it now that he is stateside. Life in the Marines was simple, there was always a mission to uptake, always some kind of directive. Now that he is back home, all he sees are the scars of wounds that never healed. Even with his best friend and battle buddy: William "Wolf" Jackson, living with him in the home he and his late wife shared together, he can't shake the feeling of being hopelessly alone.

Plagued by nightmares one night, Cayde decides to clear his head by taking a walk through the brisk Billings, Montana night. He soon finds himself chasing memories, landing him in the front of a church. In an odd twist of fate, Cayde unwittingly becomes the witness of a drug operation. Being the protector that he is, Cayde gets involved, protecting a young teen, and chasing off the criminals with the help of the young pastor.
Little does Cayde know, he is about to embark on the hardest mission of his life, placing him on a journey of justice, healing, and purpose. Old wounds begin to bubble to the surface as he runs into an old friend who requests his help to take down the drug ring. Despite his debilitating injuries he sustained overseas, he trusts his training, when that doesn't seem to be enough, he must put his trust in something more than himself.
