Generation Kill+1
by Lucindana
After the war, Nate Fick is ready to leave the Corps behind—but he’s not ready for the silence that follows. Brad Colbert stayed in, and now he’s not sure what he’s staying for. Ray Person? He’s just tired of watching them circle each other.When Nate moves to New Hampshire and finds an old, broken guitar in a thrift store, he doesn’t expect it to hum when no one touches it. He doesn’t expect the ghost that comes with it either: 1stLt. Edward “Hillbilly” Jones, USMC, 1944, killed on Peleliu, still waiting for the man he loved.The guitar—Caroline—is a tether. Between Eddie and his past. Between Nate and Brad. Between the generations of Marines who loved too quietly, too late.This is a story about ghosts and guilt, memory and music, love and legacy.And what happens when someone finally answers the silence.
