When WWII fighter pilot Jack Dodds crash-lands deep behind enemy lines, he finds an unexpected family of resistance agents…and new love.
In May 1944, Jack Dodds is stranded behind enemy lines, hunted by the Gestapo, wounded and disoriented. Rescued by agents of the Belgian Resistance, Jack meets a wonderful collection of Resistance members in occupied Belgium working out of a building known as the “Chicken House.” He earns the nickname “Cowboy” from a tough, grizzled resistance fighter after he is forced to kill a Nazi predator attacking Ellen, a young Belgian woman with whom he is falling in love. The rest of the Chicken House crew call him Cowboy after he single-handedly kills two roadside cutthroats when they encounter their makeshift roadblock. In this action-packed historical fiction thriller, we see a love story unfolding—not just between two young people who were thrust into each other’s lives by a crash-landing in the Ardennes Forest, but by the “Greater Love” of brave men and women, civilians, clergy, religious, and military who were willing to lay down their lives for their fellow human beings.
