One Was a Soldier

Five veterans gather in Millers Kill to make sense of their war experiences. They find murder, conspiracy, and the unbreakable ties that bind them to each other and their small Adirondack town. Rev. Clare Fergusson wants to forget her combat helicopter pilot past and focus on Chief of Police Russ Van Alstyne. Each veteran struggles with the aftermath of war, and when one dies under suspicious circumstances, they launch an unorthodox investigation that uncovers deceit in their town and beyond. Julia Spencer-Fleming's One Was a Soldier is a gripping mystery that explores loyalty, resilience, and the long-lasting impact of war.
