The Jackson MacKenzie Chronicles: Oath of Destiny

Book excerpt: Cathy Alexander’s journey began with a dream of becoming a doctor, but when she joined the Army and was sent to Vietnam, her dream quickly becomes a nightmare. As a nurse at the 95th Evac Hospital, she witnesses the brutal realities of war. She perseveres and graduates from medical school. Despite her achievements, the Vietnam War left a lasting mark on her psyche. She must confront the memories she’s been trying to forget. Will she overcome her past and find a way to move forward? "Angel’s book is a vivid depiction of the horrors of war. You find yourself drawn in from the very first page. Her character development puts you right inside their thoughts, feelings, and actions. Angel writes so you feel the intensity of the battles, the despair of the wounded as well as the survivors who process the guilt of surviving." - Patti Hendrix, Nurse, 85th Evac Hospital
