Readers’ Reviews

He Didn’t Say Good-Bye gives very deep insight into the lives of the Special Forces men and their families. Reading it, I had the sense of being in some places as things were happening. This novel has a good family image, which made it enjoyable to read and a mystery thriller feel, too. I would read it again. It is not a ‘men’ s only’ book!

Did this happen? Could this happen? War causes many separations; some planned and some like this one, totally unexpected. Unexpected not only because of the mission, but also the way in which the author weaves his tale of romance, bravery, and political intrigue. I highly recommend this excellent read.

Robin Moore, author of The Green Berets

Great book!

Karen Roten

This is one of those stories I never wanted to end. The characters became so alive that I wanted to meet them. It brings home the extraordinary circumstances that the greatest men of our country and their families have endured—those whose lives epitomize the quintessence of bravery. After reading the first chapters, I knew that I would not leave the pages until I had read it all.

A winner. . . . Well-planned and executed. The military information is interesting and instructive to the outsider without being pedantic. Thank you for not over-whelming this civilian with acronyms. It was also very satisfying to the reader that you so neatly tied up all the loose ends, completing all the circles within circles in your characters’ lives. No doubt others have told you this, but I’ll bet you have a movie here.

I began reading this story very early in the morning and was so engrossed with the book that I never put it down until I finished it later that evening. I have never come across a story that held me as captive as this book did.

Jack Costello

The dramatic story line and characters have authenticity. Would satisfy a wide audience. When I looked through Flaherty’s bio, I could see why.

Norman E. Johnson

. . . a great read.

Readership:

General audiences, history buffs, military personnel and their families, mature high school students, and those with special interest in Laos and Southeast Asia or MIAs.
