Rigid Fields

Rigid Fields: Family, Wealth, Passion, Pain
As a young man in small-town Minnesota, Earl Bovey's whole life stretches before him, and to anyone else, it looks like a promising life. Earl is married to a beautiful woman, and they are raising two sons and mentoring two girls of similar ages. The family farm is profitable and successful. But darkness lurks in both Rigid, Minnesota, and Earl's own mind. He cannot escape the memories of his time as a sailor in Viet Nam. A feud with a neighbor leads to great anger, stress, and pain for Earl's family, which never seems to end and, in fact, seems to lead to a frightening spiral of tragedy.

Sweeping from the battlefields of Viet Nam to the agricultural fields of the Midwest, Rigid Fields is exciting and intriguing, sweetened with romance and sparked with inspiration for any reader with heart, mind, or soul in America's heartland, and beyond.
