Mangler
By Steven Gale
After retiring to North Carolina, ex-Army Ranger Doyle joins a search for a missing boy in the Smoky Mountains—where the horrors of war...
The Forest Has Taken A Child.
Doyle thought life would slow down now that he and Susan had retired to Fontana Lake, North Carolina. He would continue to work with search and rescue teams and put the war deployments to Iraq and Afghanistan behind him. However, this ex-Army Ranger would soon find out that the Smoky Mountains and Afghanistan have more things in common than what appears — thrown into the search for a missing young boy, the horrors of war quickly come back into focus. Doyle, racing against time to find the missing boy, finds something very few people know exists.
The rules of engagement seem always to be working against him.
