WWII historical novel set in PH to be released Sept. 16
Once A Colonel by H. P. Shreve is an unforgettable tale of survival, both in love and war, based on the extraordinary life and career of US Army officer, Colonel Arthur L. Shreve, Jr., and his wife, Julia McCoy.
In a grand and sensual love affair, history carries them through the glamour of the ‘20s, the trauma of ‘30s and into the uncertainty of the ‘40s when he is called to service in the Philippines as Chief of Artillery.
As a POW of the Japanese, Shreve plays a dangerous game of “cat n’ mouse” with his captors, using all means necessary–including the Underground–to smuggle in food and cash to save his men.
Learn of the untold story of Military Intelligence and the heroes that made it work… and the appalling loss of life that marked the War in the Pacific, and so much more. READ EXCERPTS here: https://www.heather-shreve.com/buy-books-more
