PORTLAND, Ore., Oct. 18, 2016 /PRNewswire/ Masterfully crafted by Jack Estes, 'A Soldier's Son' calls on the author's own experiences in Vietnam to tell the gut-wrenching story of a PTSD-riddled veteran, who breaks to the core of his being when his son is sent to the war in Iraq. He has a plan to 'save' him; a plan that will put protagonist Mike Kelly's own life on the line and rekindle the memories of Vietnam that threaten to destroy him. A Novel this profound has naturally been received with critical acclaim. Author Karen Karbo said, 'Jack Estes is a master at capturing the human costs of war, from the battlefield to the front rooms of America. As riveting, as it is lyrical, A Soldier's Son will not be forgotten.'
