There's trouble brewing in America's heartland. Traditional patriotic values have taken firm root in the community of Cannon, Illinois, and that's putting it mildly. The citizens unanimously send their sons off to war to kill and die for the greater glory of town and country. But Billy Richcreek knows something is off course with the focus on killing. He can't just be dismissed as a nonconformist oddball. Billy is the star athlete on the high school football team, and above all others in his generation, he is the mayor's hope for a proud symbol of Cannon's willingness to fight. When the Vietnam war heats up in the 60s, Billy stands against it. Not only will he not go, he does all in his power to persuade others to resist a war that a vision has told him is unwinnable. As an alternative to Vietnam, he urges invasion of Mexico for surefire victory. He angers the town and puzzles the beautiful Belle Beaulieu, who loves him but can't seduce him. Billy has vowed to remain a virgin until he rids America of the communist threat. And, he's already mated -- to his German Luger.Roller, William Lloyd is the author of 'Dead Are Dancing' with ISBN 9780887393846 and ISBN 0887393845.
