Dr. Frank Dotson, an esteemed biology professor at Columbia
University, has a secret: the source of his spectacular
success in biological theory is the work of a man who was killed
in Vietnam in 1968. Before he was killed in the war, Harry
Emerson entrusted Dotson with both his life's work and the safety
of his family.
FRAGS is a novel that takes place on the morning of January 11,
1991, on the eve of the Gulf War, beginning when Professor Dotson
reads a letter from a young man also named Harry Emerson, a letter
that threatens Dotson's career and will change his life. He
undergoes a series of flashbacks to his Army service in Vietnam as
he faces and tries to come to terms with the prospect of being
exposed as a fraud after more than twenty years as a successful
academic.
He also has to take a hard look at himself:
"This is the first time he has ever really reflected on the
depths of his failure toward this man Fearless, who had trusted him
with every precious thing he had— his wife, his child, his life's
work."
FRAGS is available now as an eBook from Amazon,
I-Tunes,
Barnes
& Noble (Nook), Kobo Books,
Google
Play, and Blio.
