When Eagles Soared isawork of fiction - the story is adapted from, inspired by, and based on the author's best recollection of actual events. When Lou Surber Osborne, a rookie teacher and coach, is hired to coach an elementary football team with a losing history, he quickly realizes the challenges that lie ahead of him to make them winners. While defying all the obstacles and challenges facing him, seventeen seventh and eighth-grade boys bought into a winning philosophy to become the best they could be, win or lose. 
In telling this story, for those of you that are baby-boomers, I hope to transport you back to 1970-71 when life was simple and innocent in so many ways, yet challenging and tense in navigating the turbulent times brought on by the Vietnam War. It had an enormous effect on young men of military draft age, and their families and friends, in one way or the other until the war ended. Rock-and-roll groups and their songs during the Vietnam War era were a statement of defiance but also hope for a better future. As you come across them in the book, I hope the songs take you back in time, remembering the good times you experienced with that special someone.

The Detective Carla McBride Chronicles Chasing Truth and Redemption: The Search for Penny Miracle

Penny Miracle, a beautiful, mature teenager, disappeared without a trace on June 23, 1997. On that day, an up-and-coming rookie police officer named Carla McBride, and her mentor, Tony Picetti, were the first officers to arrive at the home of Jack and Sandy Miracle. Bernie Kowalski, who had just achieved detective status, was assigned as the lead investigator and arrived moments later. While Picetti leads a team canvasing Oakmont's west end, McBride interviewed Penny's best friend, Zoe Elizabeth Pendergast, who was with Penny that fateful afternoon. After numerous interviews, tips, and dead-end leads, the case fell stone cold. Penny never surfaced, nor was her body ever found. The case laid dormant until Beth Pendergast landed a job as a forensic psychologist and profiler with the Oakmont Police Department. Her mission was to solve cold cases, and her first case - Penny Miracle's disappearance. Beth is thrust into action with Detectives Carla McBride and Bernie Kowalski in hopes of solving this case that has haunted each of them for the past fifteen years. Their paths had never crossed since that fateful day, and now, as they seek truth and redemption, their lives will never be the same. Chasing Truth and Redemption, the third novel in The Detective Carla McBride Chronicles, is an intriguing and spell-bounding mystery with many unexpected twists and turns. While Samantha Lewis's fate is finally revealed, the ending is one you will not see coming. Follow the continuing saga of The Detective Carla McBride Chronicles at Nick Lewis - Author on Facebook.
