About this listen

Travis Air Force Base, 1974. The same tarmac where F. Scott Morgan departed for his first tour of duty in Vietnam now marks his return, but this time, everything is different. The war has changed, the missions are shrouded in secrecy, and the man he was is a distant memory. Morgan is a seasoned warrior, but he is also haunted by the choices he has made and the love he left behind. As he flies deeper into the heart of darkness, he discovers that the greatest battles are often fought within.

"Flight to Gold" follows Morgan as he confronts the echoes of his past while facing the uncertainties of his present. Amidst the chaos of war, Morgan finds himself drawn into a web of intrigue, seduced by a woman who is not who she says she is, undertaking a dangerous mission to recover stolen gold, and fighting to stay alive.

Will he find redemption in the skies, or will the ghosts of Vietnam claim him forever: "Flight to Gold" is a thrilling tale of courage, sacrifice, and the enduring power of love, set against the backdrop of the Vietnam War's lingering shadow.

Flight to Gold is a gripping and unexpectedly tender novel that blends high-octane aerial combat, historical authenticity, and a deeply human love story set against the backdrop of the Vietnam War.

One of the most immersive elements of the book is the way it incorporates music. Songs from that era—classic rock, soulful ballads, and wartime anthems—are threaded naturally into the narrative, evoking vivid memories or, for newer generations, conjuring an atmosphere so rich it feels like you’re actually there.

This is more than just a war novel. It’s a story about purpose, love, loss, and the echoes of the past—brought to life with heart-thudding action and an evocative soundtrack that plays in your mind long after the final chapter. You will be asking for the sequel!
