There’s Gold in Those Hills

In There’s Gold In Those Hills, the ghosts of war, regret, and fleeting redemption haunt the pages like echoes from a forgotten past. This collection of stories delves into the lives of men hardened by time and experience—soldiers returning home to find themselves strangers in their own towns, gamblers who wager more than they can afford to lose, and lost souls seeking solace in the arms of those just as broken.

Through vividly raw storytelling, the collection explores themes of war trauma, the weight of past choices, and the relentless search for meaning in a world that often moves on without us. In one tale, a Vietnam veteran struggles to reintegrate into a quiet town that seems oblivious to the war that reshaped him. In another, a washed-up gambler on Christmas Eve faces the consequences of debts he can never repay. A drifter seeks more than just physical comfort in the arms of a motel worker, hoping for connection in a place where love and money are too easily intertwined.

Each story pulses with grit and heartache, filled with characters who navigate the blurred lines between memory and reality, duty and regret, survival and self-destruction. With prose that is both poetic and unflinching, There’s Gold In Those Hills is a powerful meditation on the scars—both seen and unseen—that we carry with us.
