Lists of awards, medals, accolades, and tributes pay homage to the many accomplishments of this extraordinary man. Way Beyond the Blue is not simply another rehashing of the easily-ascertained facts about Colonel Jackson's deeds. Instead, readers are invited to see the heart behind the man. Jack Jackson has lived his life in service to God, others, and his country. A decorated Vietnam War veteran, two-term state representative, and test pilot for Boeing's Harrier Jet, he is a man unafraid to consider sacrifice as anything less than his reasonable duty. From a small family farm in Indiana to rubbing elbows with presidents, Jack Jackson still holds fast the most important things in life. The stories he tells will take you from hold-your-breath harrowing excitement to tug-your-heart sorrow, poignant moments, joy, and contentment. As he shares the experiences and lessons that shaped his character and values, he does so with the confidence and humor of a man at home with his life's work as he flies Way Beyond the Blue."--

Whisked away to Bucharest by her wealthy American lover, Kenton Farraday, Tatiana dreams of a future full of the love and riches she has seen on American television. Instead, Tatiana is kept a virtual prisoner in the Farraday family's large, but hostile Bucharest home. A search for her and her father is conducted in her village, but the case eventually goes cold. From the quiet country roads of poverty-stricken 1991 Romania to the bustling streets of St. Louis, Missouri, in 2016, this story takes you on a journey in which deception, manipulation, bribery, and corruption are woven into a page-turning mystery that will leave you on the edge of your seat.
