A Debt of War (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781622534722)

A dying wish and a mysterious manuscript bring to light a heart-rending tale of one soldier's undying commitment to pay a debt owed, transcending both ideology and racial divide, leading to the ultimate price paid.

"Michael Ringering weaves a beautifully layered story, against the most extreme of circumstances, reminding us that what we share will always be more powerful than contemporary forces that would seek to divide. A Debt of War is truly a masterful and timeless piece." Lt. Col. Casey Grider, United States Air Force

At his mother's funeral, Paul Bacca, an accomplished publisher, is approached by a mysterious decorated military veteran who claims to have been sent at Paul's mother's final request: deliver an unpublished manuscript of the only novel written by an acclaimed poet.

Paul subsequently discovers a shocking family secret that forever changes his life and those of his siblings. The propulsive, gut-wrenching story Paul reads details an inconceivable friendship, a tale of lives forever entwined in a debt owed between enemies.

"...a compelling read that succeeds because of its action-filled plot, brisk dialogue, compelling characters and suspenseful twists and turns. He [Ringering] put his heart and soul into this book, and it shows." Jerry Crasnick, Senior Advisor, Major League Baseball Players Association, Sports Journalist, and Former Baseball Writer for ESPN and other Outlets
