A NOVEL OF THE VIETNAM WAR
The war didn't make him a ghost. Kansas did. Vietnam, 1970. Luke Hale is gone. They call him Ghost now.
He left Kansas over a rumor - the kind that sticks to your skin and runs you out of town without anyone having to say a word.
In Saigon, he joins a clandestine unit: six men the Army keeps at arm's length because they are too unstable, too visible, too different. Together they run the missions nobody else is sent on - missions no one will ever admit to. The Army wouldn't mind if they never came back.

In Saigon, he joins a clandestine unit: six men the Army keeps at arm's length because they are too unstable, too visible, too different. Together they run the missions nobody else is sent on - missions no one will ever admit to. The Army wouldn't mind if they never came back.
But Ghost carries a secret heavier than the war. A secret that goes back to a prom night in Kansas, to a river, to a friend he could not save.
Buried Long Before I Died is a novel about what a man agrees to lose in order to protect the people he loves. About what war reveals - and what it cannot erase.
Sweeping and sensory, it moves between the jungle of Vietnam and the plains of the Midwest. Six men the Army wanted to lose. A unit that never existed. A brotherhood nobody saw coming. And a secret that outlasts them all.
Originally published in French as Pisser sur ta tombe en guise de larmes.
